Her roles included Frasquita (Carmen), Second Niece (Peter Grimes), La Musica (L’Orfeo), Papagena (Die Zauberflöte, sung in Danish), Echo (Ariadne auf Naxos) and Soprano (Don Giovanni’s Inferno). This season, Fanny joined the Académie de l’Opéra-Comique in Paris.

She has also performed in numerous festivals with vocal quartet Quatuor Bonelli, which she cofounded in 2015, and has recorded the soundtrack for Wim Wenders’ documentary Anselm with the Slovak National Symphony Orchestra in 2023.
