Catherine was thrilled to advance to the semifinals of the international Szymanowski Competition in Poland, in association with the National Radio Orchestra of Poland.

Catherine has worked as one of OperaUpClose's Associate Artists this year, covering Senta in their new production of Wagner's The Flying Dutchman and touring a solo show entitled We Two Were Lovers – The Sea and I, featuring a new translation of Haydn's Arianna a Naxos among other repertoire.

​Catherine was a 2022/23 Opera Prelude Young Artist. Highlights included masterclasses led by Lucy Crowe, Della Jones, and Renato Balsadonna, a lecture recital on the perfectly good and perfectly evil women of opera, and many concerts of operatic highlights.

Catherine travelled to Romania as a semifinalist in the international Ionel Perlea Competition. She was thrilled to be part of the final twelve singers selected from across the world. 

The newly-formed 97 Ensemble performed a concert of music by female composers at the Royal Albert Hall, including Errollyn Wallen's Are You Worried About the Rising Cost of Funerals? 

Catherine programmed a recital of music by female composers for this new festival celebrating diversity. Planned and performed with tenor Harry Grigg, the recital featured songs by Nadia Boulanger, Cécile Chaminade, and Muriel Herbert, as well as two new commissions by Rebecca Nisco and Jasmine Morris.

Catherine performed Kirschblütenlieder, Egon Wellesz's German settings of Japanese cherry blossom poems. This concert was streamed online as part of the Music Migration and Mobility research project at the Royal College of Music, in association with the Austrian Cultural Forum.
