With Boston Baroque, she has performed the roles of Bastienne, Serpina in La Serve Padrona, Ninfa/Proserpina in Orfeo, Amore in Il Ritorno d'Ulisse, Oberto in Alcina, and most recently Lieschen in Bach's Coffee Cantata. Ms. Forsythe has spent two summers as a vocal fellow at the Tanglewood Music Center; this year she sang the role of Young Margarita in the world premiere of Osvaldo Golijov's Ainadamar, and as Dawn Upshaw's cover, sang one performance as Old Magarita. In February, the opera was performed with the Los Angeles Philharmonic in Disney Hall. Also in 2004, Ms. Forsythe will debut at the Caramoor Festival as Cendrillon in Viardot's Cendrillon, and as Un Trojano in Gluck's Paride ed Elena. These performances mark her debut with the Handel and Haydn Society.
