About Golda Schultz

With her career still on the rise as of the early 2020s, Golda Schultz is one of South Africa's leading operatic sopranos. She has a large repertory stretching from Purcell through Mozart, a particular specialty, to Hans Werner Henze. In 2011, Schultz was accepted into the opera studio of the Bavarian State Opera in Munich, where she has lived ever since. She then joined the company ensemble, remaining there until 2018. In 2017, Schultz made her New York Metropolitan Opera debut in Mozart's Die Zauberflöte. Schultz has branched out into choral music, performing Mendelssohn's oratorio Elijah with the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig under conductor Andris Nelsons, and into art song, often appearing with pianist Jonathan Ware. With Ware, she released her debut album, This Be Her Verse, featuring works by women composers from Clara Schumann to the contemporary composer Kathleen Tagg.
