She is simply amazing, with a voice that induces goose bumps and a stage presence that is mesmerizing." Arizona Daily Star      Ariadne auf Naxos "Mary Wilson was a fabulous Zerbinetta, no mere flighty chanteuse-danseuse but a sensible, sensitive girl whose idea of fun just happened to involve men. ...her bright, beautiful tone never faltered, and everything was wrapped in effortless suavity." Opera News      Rigoletto "Timid directors might water down the abduction of Rigoletto's daughter Gilda (stunningly sung by soprano Mary Wilson)... And Wilson, who last appeared with Arizona Opera in 2006's "The Marriage of Figaro," possessed an arresting soprano and a beguiling innocence that convinced you she truly believed the lecherous Duke loved her. Her dramatic Act II aria stole our breath." Arizona Daily Star      Le Nozze di Figaro "Far better was the Susanna of Mary Wilson, all grace and charm, with a warmly expressive voice, luxuriant of tone." Opera News      Una cosa Rara "Soprano Mary Wilson was both impressive and endearing as the dotty Queen of Spain, and she certainly seemed to enjoy her silly onstage shenanigans. She wowed the audience during many of her numbers, particularly the virtuoso rondo in Act II. A great example of Cosa rara's more elevated musical style for the noble characters, Wilson nailed the difficult technical passages in this aria with finesse and good taste in ornamentation." Opera Today      Miscellaneous "Soprano Mary Wilson, who sang the role of the Flight Controller, navigated her vocals as a true ethereal creature she was, reaching, achieving, holding and repetitively going to the very top of her range with effortless, smooth perfection. It was a wonderful, stand-out performance that awed the audience." OperaOnline.US
