Voigt is one of the world's leading sopranos, known particularly for Wagner and Strauss roles. She will sing a program of pop standards at Lincoln Center in January in a concert billed as her cabaret debut. Heppner's roles include Tristan and the title roles in Lohengrin, Verdi's Otello, and Berlioz's Aeneas. He will sing Siegfried for the first time in 2008 at the Aix-en-Provence Festival.
