A rich, radiant voice, expansive range and dynamic stage presence are Tara Erraught's hallmarks. Her extensive repertoire includes, Mozart, Rossini, Strauss, Bellini, Dvorak, Gounod and Händel as well as contemporary composers. Erraught has made an impressive 47 role debuts as resident principal soloist at Bayerische Staatsoper. She was to play title role of Angelina in Rossini's La Cenerentola at the Metropolitan Opera in New York in March which was to be cancelled on the day prior to opening due to current Covid-19 crisis.

“In a time when our world is hurting; lonely, grieving and afraid, we turn to art. Music, literature and film bring solace. I am delighted to return to my musical home in Ireland at the NCH and share the program, Songs of Comfort & Hope, albeit in a new format of live streaming” – Tara Erraught.
