Aachen-born soprano Cathrin Lange, praised by the press for her "crystal-clear voice", her "sparkling coloratura and radiant high notes" as well as for her "dramatic talent and intense acting", has developed into one of the most interesting and exciting singers in opera, concert and oratorio singing in recent years.

In the 2023/24 season, Cathrin Lange will sing the title role in the revival of La Traviata at the Staatstheater Darmstadt and Blonde in Die Entführung aus dem Serail at the Theater Bonn.

In spring 2023, a guest engagement took her to Opera Ballet Vlaanderen, where she once again sang the role of Miss Schlesen in Satyagraha by Philip Glass. Cathrin Lange has been working freelance since summer 2023.

Other guest engagements have taken her to the Komische Oper Berlin, Stuttgart State Opera, Theater Basel, Aalto Theater Essen, Staatstheater Darmstadt, Saarbrücken State Opera, Landestheater Linz, Graz Opera, Oldenburg State Theatre, Pfalztheater Kaiserslautern, Theater Ulm and Salzburger Landestheater.

During her time in permanent engagements at Staatstheater Darmstadt (2018-2023) and Theater Augsburg (2009-2018), she developed a wide-ranging operatic repertoire, including the following roles: Violetta (La Traviata), Liù (Turandot), Gilda (Rigoletto), Olympia (The Tales of Hoffmann), Adina (L'Elisir d'Amore), Pamina and 1. Dame (Die Zauberflöte), Mélisande (Pelléas et Mélisande), Musetta (La Bohème), Gretel (Hänsel und Gretel), Oscar (Maskenball), Sandrina (La finta giardiniera), Blonde (Die Entführung aus dem Serail), Susanna (Le nozze di Figaro), Despina (Così fan tutte), Ännchen (Der Freischütz), Zerlina (Don Giovanni), Adele (Die Fledermaus) and Eliza Doolittle (My Fair Lady).

She has worked with renowned conductors such as Stefan Soltesz, Jonathan Stockhammer, Giuseppe Finzi, Daniel Cohen, Domonkos Héja and Michael Hofstetter and directors such as Jan Philipp Gloger, Thorleifur Örn Arnasson, Immo Karaman, Sebastian Baumgarten, Ludger Engels, Peter Konwitschny and Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui.

Her concert repertoire includes a German Requiem by J.Brahms, Messiah by G.F.Händel, The Creation by J.Haydn, the 4th Symphony by G.Mahler, Lobgesang by F.Mendelssohn Bartholdy, Kaddish by L. Bernstein, the St. Matthew Passion by J.S.Bach, the Requiem and the Coronation Mass by W.A.Mozart, the Requiem by G.Fauré, Carmina Burana by C.Orff and the Mass of the Children by J.Rutter.

In the field of lieder, the artist sets further important accents in her work. She pays particular attention to both the German and French repertoire, for example with a portrait recital of the composer Cécile Chaminade.

Since 2019, Cathrin Lange has been working closely with the Bastian Walcher Quartet. The first CD "Arias, Jazz and Cinnamon Stars" promises a Christmas crossover of baroque music and jazz. The new CD "Arias in blue" was released in 2024.

In 2017, Cathrin Lange was nominated for the Austrian Music Theater Prize for the role of Blonde as the best female supporting role. In 2014, she was awarded the Bavarian Arts Promotion Prize in the "Performing Arts" category. In 2012, she received the Augsburg Theater Prize in the "Music Theatre" category.
