During her time as an WNO Associate Artist Isabelle made three role debuts as Zerlina (Don Giovanni), Jano (Jenůfa), Nadine (Migrations), and Berta (Il barbiere di Siviglia). Other recent stage appearances include Erste Dame in Die Zauberflöte for Nevill Holt Festival, Barena (Jenůfa), Papagena (The Magic Flute), Esmeralda (The Bartered Bride), and Kate (The Yeomen of the Guard) with English National Opera, and Lepida (Silla) with Northern Opera Group.
