48hills von Charles Lewis III
At SF Opera, a ‘Tristan and Isolde’ that’s hardly a tragedy
Assembled to do the bloviating are a fine cast of performers (with Schlicht’s turn as Brangäne being especially captivating),..

Tristan and Isolde
…Solid performances by Annika Schlicht as Isolde’s attendant Brangäne and Wolfgang Koch as Tristan’s attendant Kurwenal should also be noted…
Opera Today von Michael Milenski
Tristan and Isolde in San Francisco
…Brangäne was sung by German mezzo soprano Annika Schlicht. Of similar bright voice to Isolde she was as much Isolde’s alter-ego as she was Isolde’s maid. The opera’s opening scene was the sparring of two shöne madchen in this production’s demystification of the Tristan legend, not a scene of an interior, personal, philosophic, heroic battle…

It’s Brittany, bitch
…San Francisco Opera continued their recent string of hiring incredible artists that were making their US and house debuts with German mezzo-soprano Annika Schlicht.

San Francisco Classical Voice von Lisa Hirsch
SF Opera Taps Into the Transcendent Power of Tristan and Isolde
…Mezzo-soprano Annika Schlicht, in her U.S. opera debut, is an ideal Brangäne, Isolde’s companion who substitutes the potion for the poison. Schlicht’s sterling breath control lets her marvelously float her character’s distant warnings during the love duet….

Magnificent orchestral work under Eun Sun Kim elevates SFO’s Tristan und Isolde
…Among the vocal standouts in the rest of the cast, Annika Schlicht as Brangäne (Isolde’s servant and companion) fielded a resonant and fluid mezzo-soprano, her steadiness playing against Kempe’s impetuousness. Making her U.S. opera debut, she floated mellifluous warnings beside the Act II tryst….
