The Met is hiring Christine Goerke to sing Elektra, Ortrud, Turandot, and Brünnhilde in upcoming seasons. That Elektra will be in the Chereau production that is expected to come to the Met in the near future, and the Ortrud will be in a revival of Robert Wilson's Lohengrin. As for the Ring, alas, the Lepage production will return.
This couldn't happen to a better singer or a nicer person (note the account of her jumping on stage to turn pages).
I am so there! And hoping SF Opera will also hire her.
