I've never seen Anthony perform, but I have all of his recordings. Based on those alone, I can say without any doubt that he is the most gifted musical theatre talent in the world. He's so virsatile it's almost scary, and can easily pull off any style from opera, to golden-age musical comedy, to rat-pack swing, to modern pop-opera. He even manages to sing duets with himself that are hardly recognizable as the same person. His range is incredible, his tone perfect, and his vibratto control is like none I've ever heard...and well, he's what I want to be when I grow up.
