Auguste Aramini

Auguste Aramini (1875 – 1950) was a French born singer.

Aramini was born in Agen, France. [cite web|url = http://www.collectionscanada.ca/gramophone/m2-1029-e.html|title = Auguste Aramini, singer (circa 1875-1950)|publisher = Collections Canada] He is thought to have emigrated to Canada as a singer in the theatre performance company of René Harmant, who arrived in Canada in 1897. While in Montreal he made several recordings for the Berliner label, including "Faut te faire vacciner" and "Adieux d'amants". In 1905, the Ligues de Vertu à Montréal applied pressure to the theatre industry of Montreal to stop the display of questionable morality they say in the current theatre. Harmant's company departed for New York that year, and Aramini accompanied them.

In 1947, he married Jeanne Maubourg in Montreal.
