Hailed 鈥渆xplosive鈥� by the San Francisco Classical Voice, German soprano Anja Strauss has firmly established herself in the vocal profession as an extremely experienced and multifaceted performer, being equally at home in the Opera, Lied and Oratorio repertoire.

In addition to opera, Ms. Strauss has performed a vast repertoire of sacred music, e.g. the Mozart鈥檚 Requiem for the September 11 Commemoration at Lincoln Center, New York. A passionate Lied Singer, Ms. Strauss has performed in recitals at Weill Hall at Carnegie Hall, the Goethe Institute in New York City, the Mozart Society of California, and at the Bach Festival in Roskilde (Denmark). Furthermore, she performed Sch枚nberg鈥檚 鈥淧ierrot Lunaire鈥� with conductor Kent Nagano.
