“Tenors are noble, pure and heroic and get the soprano, if she has not tragically expired before the final curtain. But baritones are born villains in opera. Always the heavy and never the hero-that's me.”
Leonard Warren
“It's not in the soprano voice that she has. But it's in a voice that's good to hear.”
Bernice King
“Nobody inspired me more than Julie Andrews, who is a classically trained soprano herself.”
Lesley Garrett
“The (women's) roles are for a mezzo-soprano, a lyric soprano and a coloratura soprano ... and she is extremely talented with a beautiful sound and flexibility.”
Prentice Loftin
“It's more active than what Tony Soprano is doing. Here you have your picks.”
Koleman Strumpf
“She is probably the best mezzo-soprano I've ever had in my studio. She has an artistry that is extremely unusual. She can interpret a song far beyond her years.”
Bill Bauer
“I've eaten more queens than Lancelot.”
