" It was meltingly sung, too, by the ravishingly blended voices of Anna Devin, a bright and beautiful light lyric soprano who has made such an impression this season in main house productions of Hänsel und Gretel (as the Dew Fairy) and Die Zauberflöte (as Papagena)"
Peter Grimes - The Guardian
"her "nieces", the lively duo of Rebecca Bottone and Jette Parker young artist Anna Devin, conveyed both their individuality and their numbing, circumscribed ordinariness."
Peter Grimes - Opera Today
"Moreover, in an unusually striking presentation of these minor female roles, Auntie (Catherine Wyn-Rodgers) and her two Nieces (Rebecca Bottone and Anna Devin) provided a welcome splash of visual and vocal colour in the tavern scene."
Peter Grimes
"with the exception that is of the bright reds of the ebullient nieces, deceptively smart characters here given layered performances by Rebecca Bottone and Anna Devin."
Peter Grimes - Classical Source
"Best of all are the trio of women who “comfort men from ugliness”: Catherine Wyn-Rogers as the outwardly respectable Auntie, and the hyperactive pairing of Rebecca Bottone and Anna Devin as her professional ‘Nieces’."
