After attracting attention in German and Austrian opera houses, the Bavarian-born soprano quickly gained worldwide recognition. In addition to European stages, she considers the Metropolitan Opera in New York almost her second home, where she has debuted in numerous roles and made MET history by performing both the Queen of the Night and Pamina in different performances of Die Zauberflöte. Her repertoire centres on 19th-century bel canto operas, as well as works by Mozart, Verdi, and Richard Strauss, and she is also an acclaimed concert, oratorio, and lieder singer. The international queen of coloratura has been experienced live by Budapest audiences several times at Müpa Budapest, most recently in spring 2024 in a programme dedicated to operettas, accompanied by the Hungarian State Opera Orchestra.
