Bernard Holland of The New York Times calls her "technically robust and musically forceful."

Charles Ward of the Houston Chronicle writes "She has succeeded in avoiding all the overdone playing styles of the most famous flutists today... She also was an exuberant, easily extroverted performer whose enthusiasm for the music made the composition sparkle."

Pan: The Magazine of the British Flute Society says "Amy Porter's skill enables her to express passion, whimsy, simplicity and many other moods with apparent ease, giving a sense of total involvement."

Recipient, 2006 Henry Russel Award from the University of Michigan in recognition of distinguished scholarship and conspicuous ability as a teacher. The highest honor bestowed on junior faculty with 6 years in tenure. The first performing artist and third Music Professor to receive since 1926.
