Her performance was praised by Opera Magazine as “formidable”, her “bright, ringing coloratura…enough to instill fear into any living being”. The Guardian dubbed her voice “diamantine.” Last season for Ms. Krause brought several significant appearances as Die Königin der Nacht at Royal Danish Opera, Dutch National Opera, Staatsoper Berlin Unter den Linden, Nashville Opera, and at Les Arts, València. She has also brought her in-demand Königin to Deutsche Oper Berlin, Theater Basel, Oper Köln, Opera Orchestre Montpellier Occitanie, North Carolina Opera, and The Metropolitan Opera (cover).
