  • I am an oboist and own a number of Arleen's recordings. If I could play the oboe the way she sang... She's singing with the angels now.

  • Arleen Auger will forever be one of my most favorite sopranos. Her voice is like an old friend to me, and I find myself listening to her recordings whenever I need comforting. I had the privilege of hearing her sing live, twice. She was always so real, so humble, so consummate.

  • The only performance that can stand in the same level as Kathleen Battle's. Kudos to Auger, sheer perfection.

  • Absolute ace-level work, just luminous. This is the kind of performance that wrecks all the others for you, it is that good.

  • The organist at the Methodist Church here went to high school with Ms. Auger. He says even then she was very humble and didn't seem to realize how exceptional her gift....

  • Such elegance! The da capo was sublime!

  • @MisterSenseless For Haendel's sake we don't.

  • Thanks!!! Very beautiful voice!!

  • Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!

    

  • I was not familiar with this singer, but this is incomparably the best "Piangero" of the many I have listened to tonight.

  • She was an amazing artist and a wonderful person. She will never be forgotten!
