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
