About Golda

“A soprano of unearthly lyrical beauty...”
— Frankfurter Rundschau

Meet Golda Schultz, a {proudly} South African Soprano, based in Berlin, Germany. Conquering the world’s opera houses and concert halls, one stage at a time. Connecting people through music, one song at a time.

  • "Golda Schultz sings with strength and assurance, her voice with its own distinctively thrilling radiance; she is a newcomer who simply has everything."

    — The Financial Times

  • "This was one of those nights that you later tell your amazed friends and family about: Yes, I was there when tickets for a Golda Schultz performance were still available at the box office – and when you could experience the fantastic South African soprano in the intimate atmosphere of the Pierre Boulez Saal. This will not be the case for much longer."

    — Frederik Hanssen, Tagesspiegel

  • "But if there's one unmissable reason to log on, it's for Golda Schultz's Agathe, whose luscious arias she sings with creamy beauty and an undertow of desperate fragility."

    — Neil Fisher

  • “A bold reinvention [of Jerusalem] much helped by the golden, easeful soprano voice of Golda Schultz, the evening's star vocalist.” ★★★★★

    — The Sunday Telegraph

  • "Schultz’s tone had the gentle, silky glow of moonlight, but with a glisten that penetrated, and she gave a sense of both Adina’s independence and her vulnerability."

    — NY Times

  • "For the listener, the siren-like magic of the voice with its abundance of chiaroscuro sounds is irresistible."

    — FAZ

  • "The native South African, who experienced her breakthrough at the Bavarian State Opera, brings the best possible qualities to the table: a warmly timbrated, technically almost flawlessly deployed soprano, which unfolds colors and fullness in the middle buttery register that is strongly called for here."

    — Münchner Merkur

  • "Schultz has a magnificent vocal instrument, rich and glowing throughout the range, with not a weak patch anywhere, and an intensity that can make even the dully conventional songs of Mayer seem gripping. (…) This is a stunning debut disc of a soprano who is well on the way to operatic stardom."

    — The Telegraph

This Be Her Verse

In her debut recording, Golda explores the female voice across time and perspective.

“What if a woman wrote the song?” This question drives a recital of songs by female composers, performed by soprano Golda Schultz and pianist Jonathan Ware. Opening with works by Clara Schumann and Emilie Mayer, this recital weaves stories of women’s experiences with fantastic tales of powerful sirens like the Lorelei.

This be Her Verse, a song cycle by poet-librettist Lila Palmer and composer Kathleen Tagg was directly commissioned by the artists as “Songs written by women, about women, highlighting the female experience.”
