Since her stage debut 25 years ago, soprano Diana Damrau has been a regular guest at leading international opera and concert houses, as well as renowned music festivals.
Her extensive repertoire includes title roles in Anna Bolena (Zurich Opera House, Vienna State Opera), I Masnadieri, Capriccio (Bavarian State Opera), Roméo et Juliette (Metropolitan Opera, La Scala), Lucia di Lammermoor (La Scala, Bavarian State Opera Munich, Metropolitan Opera, Royal Opera House), Manon (Vienna State Opera, Metropolitan Opera), and La Traviata (La Scala, Metropolitan Opera, Royal Opera House, Opéra National de Paris, and Bavarian State Opera). She also performed as the Queen of the Night in Die Zauberflöte (Metropolitan Opera, Salzburg Festival, Vienna State Opera, Royal Opera House, Bavarian State Opera).
In January 2025, she made her acclaimed debut as the Marschallin in Der Rosenkavalier at the Staatsoper Unter den Linden in Berlin.
Since her house debut as Zerbinetta in 2005, Diana Damrau has given seven major role debuts at the Metropolitan Opera and has been featured multiple times in live HD cinema broadcasts worldwide. Highlights include new productions of Rigoletto (Gilda), Il barbiere di Siviglia (Rosina), Le comte Ory (Adèle), and Les pêcheurs de perles (Leïla). Additional engagements included title roles in La Sonnambula, La Fille du Régiment, and Roméo et Juliette.
She was the first singer in the history of the Metropolitan Opera to perform both Pamina and the Queen of the Night in different performances of the same production of Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte.
Diana Damrau is also frequently seen in contemporary repertoire on the opera stage. Roles were written especially for her, including the title role in Iain Bell’s adaptation of Hogarth’s A Harlot’s Progress (Theater an der Wien, 2013), and leading roles in Lorin Maazel’s opera 1984 (Royal Opera House, 2005).
Diana Damrau is regarded as one of the most important lieder interpreters of our time. She maintains close artistic partnerships with pianist Helmut Deutsch, harpist Xavier de Maistre, and Sir Antonio Pappano.
As an exclusive artist with Warner Classics/Erato, Diana Damrau released her debut album Arie di Bravura, a collection of Mozart and Salieri arias. This was followed by further solo albums that received numerous awards, including the ECHO and the OPUS Klassik. Together with the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra and conducted by Mariss Jansons, Diana Damrau performed Richard Strauss’ Four Last Songs at Carnegie Hall in New York, later releasing an album of the same name. Her work is documented in numerous complete opera recordings and DVDs. In December 2023, her new album featuring operetta arias and duets with Jonas Kaufmann was released.
Diana Damrau is one of the most sought-after artists on the international concert stage, with residencies including London’s Barbican Centre and performances with the Berlin Philharmonic under Kirill Petrenko.

Concert highlights of the 2024–2025 season include an open-air concert on the iconic stage of the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles with Gustavo Dudamel and the Los Angeles Philharmonic, as well as New Year’s concerts with Christian Thielemann and the Staatskapelle Berlin.
Diana Damrau was named Kammersängerin of the Bavarian State Opera in 2007, awarded the Bavarian Maximilian Order for Science and Art in 2010, and the Federal Cross of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany in 2021. She has repeatedly been named Singer of the Year (Opernwelt, International Opera Award London, Opera News, Gramophone Editor’s Choice), and since 2020, an asteroid bears her name.
