Among the list of works Aubrey has performed are Sea Pictures, The Barber of Seville, Mahler’s Fourth Symphony, Britten’s Noye’s Fludde, Man of La Mancha, St. Paulus, Rutter spirituals, Lucia Di Lammermoor, Handel’s Dixit Dominus and Messiah, and Mozart’s C-Minor Mass, Requiem, La Clemenza di Titto, The Marriage of Figaro, and Cosi fan Tutte. Aubrey was a recipient of the Marion Anderson Scholarship at Westminster Choir College, the Penrose Scholarship at Central City Opera, and a two-time district finalist in the Metropolitan Opera competition, where she also received the encouragement award.
