She has performed extensively there in both opera and concert settings, most frequently with the Israel Philharmonic and the Jerusalem Symphony. Her performances have included Rossini’s Stabat Mater, Prokofiev’s Alexander Nevsky and Bernstein’s Jeremiah Symphony and Songfest. Her international appearances include Mahler’s Second and Third Symphonies and Berlioz’s Roméo et Juliette. Susanna Poretzky made her American debut with the Opera Orchestra of New York at Carnegie Hall in Tchaikovsky’s Mazeppa.
