Other recent appearances include her debut at the Ravinia Festival as Konstanze in Die Entführung aus dem Serail, in concert at the Salzburg Festival, the Bard Music Festival’s production of Der Zwerg, and at the Berlin Staatsoper in Manon.

She is also the recipient of a 2004 Sullivan Foundation Award and the winner of the 2002 Aspen Concerto Competition. Of her performance in The Abduction from the Seraglio at Ravinia, the New City Stage said Ms. Alattar showed, “stunning ease through the soprano stratosphere …” while La Scena Musicale said, “This Lebanese-American soprano … is definitely one to watch.”
