Diana Damrau is a German operatic soprano born in Günzburg, Bavaria, who trained at the Hochschule für Musik Würzburg and began her professional career in the 1990s, specialising in opera and concert repertoire. Her repertoire centres on Mozart, Rossini, Donizetti and Richard Strauss with an emphasis on agile colouratura technique, and in later years she has expanded into more lyric and dramatic roles while maintaining a presence at major opera houses and international festivals.
