Subject:  Audition Arias in English for Lyric Baritone


Martin - not sure whether you are looking for an audition aria in English,
or and American opera audition aria, so I offer both.

Look! Though the port comes the moonshine astray...And farewell to ye, O
Rights o' Man - Billy Budd, Benjamin Britten (there is a cut in the
middle...all the Dansker conversation)

Bob's aria, Old Maid and the Thief, Gian Carlo Menotti

"Sing on the interest, not on the principal" - Florence Page Kimball, to
her student Leontyne Price
"The voice is not a fist." - Fritz Wunderlich
"I sing with a slim voice." - Birgit Nilsson
