"Her control was immaculate, her grasp of the music’s elaborate ebb and flow apparently flawless. The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra played for her like angels"  Stephen Walsh, The Arts Desk, July 2023

Recently shortlisted for the 'Rising Star Award' at the 2024 International Opera Awards, the 2024/25 season saw Charlotte debut with: 

 

  • English National Opera (conducting Turn of the Screw)

  • Volksoper Wien (My Fair Lady)

  • The London Philharmonic Orchestra (Rothko's Chapel) 

  • South Australian Opera (Dove's Flight)

She also assists Barbara Hannigan at the London Symphony Orchestra, covers Le nozze di Figaro at Glyndebourne Festival Opera, and continues with the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra.

The 2025/26 season will see Charlotte make her debut with:

 

  • The Philharmonia Orchestra (at Bold Tendencies)

  • The Royal Liverpool Philharmonic

  • Opéra National de Lyon (Les contes d'Hoffmann) 

  • Irish National Opera (The Cunning Little Vixen) 

  • The London Symphony Orchestra

  • The Philharmonie Luxembourg

 

- alongside returning to Opera Holland Park (Così fan tutte).

​Last season's highlights included returns to the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (having previously conducted them at the Three Choirs Festival) and to Opera Holland Park for Il barbiere di Siviglia. Charlotte also debuted with the Swedish Chamber Orchestra co-conducting Stravinsky’s The Rake's Progress with Hannigan in Örebro, Stockholm and Cologne.

 

Born in 1997, Charlotte graduated from Oxford University with First Class Honours in Music. She went on to study conducting at the Royal Academy of Music where she is also Musical Director of their inaugural Junior Musical Theatre Department. She has assisted on a number of new commissions at the Aldeburgh Festival and on a Stravinsky album for Linn records featuring Barbara Hannigan.
