"Her generous-voiced Katya, tragedy in every fibre of her being, was received with lusty cheers” The Australian "Arax Mansourian was outstanding (in Katya). One loved with her, cried with her and hated with her as if she were one of the family-setting her audience a difficult challenge which she met with ease. Mansourian has an appealing voice with a good range."   Northern Courier   "In "Cavalleria Rusticana", Arax Mansourian handled the abrupt transitions from high soprano to an almost fruity mezzo with a clear dramatic force. If she lacked the despairing violence of the role, she created a presence of suffering purity."   The Age "In "Cavalleria Rusticana", Mansourian expressively conveyed the anguished despair of the betrayed lover and demonstrated a strong vocal quality."   Courier Mail "Arax Mansourian…..plays the role well. With her beautiful clear voice she comes into her own in the Act I duet with Cavaradossi "Non la sospiri", while her Act II solo "Vissi d'arte" is a real hit."   John Henningham   “Possesses an inner richness which gratifies the listener’s soul even more than his ears” Voice of Armenia “Her mastery of stage and the dramatic intensity of her acting, involuntarily remind me of Greta Garbo” Mandag, Stockholm   “She was divine in Ekmlian’s ‘Patarak’… impressive and magnificent”   Garzu, Paris “Arax Mansourian’s Liù is tremulously sung and deeply affecting,the only source of warmth” The Australian arax_m@bigpond.com
