Besides the Zurich Opera, where she has long been a great favorite, the Zürich Tonhalle and the Or-chestre de la Suisse Romande are offering her dates. With the latter, which is resident at Geneva, she is to sing in two concert performances of ''Tristan" the part of Isolde and the part of Fricka in “Rheingold.” Besides this she is already booked for Liederabende at Munich, Berlin, Vienna, Frankfort, Berne and Geneva.
