Marjon Lambriks

Marjon Lambriks (born 5 April 1949) is a Dutch soprano who made an international career, especially in Austria. Her focus became operetta, whether performed on stage, for the radio, or in recordings. She recorded the role of Annina in Verdi's La traviata alongside Joan Sutherland and Luciano Pavarotti.

Born in Valkenburg aan de Geul, Lambriks studied singing at the Maastricht Academy of Music and with Paula Lindberg in Amsterdam. She won a prize at a 1970 competition which enabled her to study further at the Mozarteum in Salzburg. In 1971, she won the grand prize of the city of Salzburg during the Salzburg Festival, which resulted in offers to play for major opera houses.

Lambriks signed with the Wiener Kammeroper and sang with it from 1971, including in Una cosa rara. From 1972 she was a member of the Vienna Volksoper, where she appeared as Hänsel in Humperdinck's Hänsel und Gretel, and in operettas, among others. In the 1974/75 season, she was also engaged at the Opernhaus Wuppertal. In 1977, she became the first singer of the Volksoper after the dismissal of Julia Migenes. She remained at the Volksoper until 1986, performing roles such as Niklausse in Offenbach's Hoffmanns Erzählungen, Cherubino in Mozart's Le nozze di Figaro and Nancy in Britten's Albert Herring. At the Vienna State Opera, she performed in several productions. She appeared at the Salzburg Festival in 1979 and 1980 as the Priestess in Verdi's Aida, and in 1980 also in a Mozart concert. She performed as a guest at the Bregenz Festival, in Klagenfurt, Antwerp and at the Opernhaus Zürich.
