After having added the title-role of Violetta in Verdi's "La Traviata" to her repertoire in 2008 with huge success, Kristiane Kaiser is now taking a further step singing Leonora in "Il Trovatore". The Austrian soprano is performing this role for the first time within the Vienna Volksoper new production series of the this opera on 27 and 30 November as well as on 13 December 2013 under the baton of Enrico Dovico and in the staging by Dietrich W. Hilsdorf.

A contrast to this programme will be her concert-engagement at the Munich Prinzregententheater in early December where she will sing both soprano parts in the one-act operas "Die Zwillingsbrüder" and "Der vierjährige Posten" by Schubert. The Munich Radio Orchestra will present those pieces under the musical direction of Christopher Hogwood in concert version on 8 December 2013 . A CD-release is planned.
