Dorothea Röschmann (born 17 June 1967 in Flensburg) is a German operatic soprano.
She was a member of the ensemble at the Berlin State Opera for many years, where she had great successes singing Micaela in Carmen, Susanna in Le nozze di Figaro, Zerlina and Donna Elvira in Don Giovanni, Pamina in The Magic Flute, Fiordiligi in Così fan tutte, Ännchen in Der Freischütz and many others.
She has appeared as Contessa d'Almaviva in Le Nozze Di Figaro at the Teatro alla Scala, Milan in March 2012, a role she previously also sang for the first time in 2004 at the Ravenna Festival and then in 2006 at the Royal Opera House (director: David McVicar; conductor: Antonio Pappano) and Salzburg (again with Harnoncourt conducting, and staged by Claus Guth).
As a concert singer she took part in the project of Ton Koopman and the Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra & Choir to record the complete vocal works of Johann Sebastian Bach.
On September 10, 2011, she took part in the performance of Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 2, in a New York Philharmonic concert at Avery Fisher Hall in Lincoln Center.
