Mahler’s first major work, Das Klagende Lied, with Hannu Lintu and the BBC Symphony Orchestra at the BBC Proms.

A monumental Eighth from Klaus Mäkelä and the Royal Concertgebouw Time stands still in Amsterdam as seven soloists and four choirs join forces with the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra for one of Mahler's greatest challenges, his Eighth Symphony.

What a special week, performing Mahler’s 8th Symphony at Het Concertgebouw’s Mahler Festival, and on the 114th anniversary of Mahler’s death, with Klaus Mäkelä & @concertgborkest.bsky.social.

Some news: I’m delighted to be singing the role of Jezibaba in a concert staging of Dvořák’s Rusalka w Domingo Hindoyan & @liverpoolphil.bsky.social, with Sonya Yoncheva in the title role, PLUS this is also the 1st in a series of operas in concert for which I am Creative Producer for the RLPO.

Very much looking forward to making my debut at the Norwegian National Opera at the start of next season, conducted by Ed Gardner, in a role and opera I have long wanted to perform: JEZIBABA in Dvořák’s masterpiece Rusalka 🧙🏻🧜🏻‍♀️🔮
