Golda Schultz joins the hr-Sinfonieorchester and Paavo Järvi for the opening concerts of the 2014 Rheingau Musik Festival. The performances, on 28 & 29 June, feature Mendelssohn’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream.

Schultz and Järvi enjoyed a highly successful collaboration earlier this season, in performances of Fidelio on tour in Japan with The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen.

Schultz has also had an impressive season on the opera stage, with a number of critically acclaimed performances at Stadttheater Klagenfurt — including Sophie in Der Rosenkavalier and Cleopatra in Giulio Cesare in Egitto. She reprises the role of Sophie at Bayerische Staatsoper later this summer, alongside Soile Isokoski’s Marschallin and Alice Coote’s Octavian.
