Since then she has appeared with many of the world’s top opera companies, including the Bayerischer Staatsoper, the Royal Opera (Covent Garden), the Berlin Deutschoper and the metropolitan operas of Florence, Genoa and Trieste.
She was lauded in 1989 for her performances in the title role of Madame Butterfly with the Wien Staatsoper.
In 1991 she became the first Japanese to be honored with a recital sponsored by the Wiener Music Verein, a production that received favorable reviews.
To date, Miwako Matsumoto has appeared with Herman Prey, Alfredo Kraus, Jose Carreras, Gena Dimitrova, Juan Pons, Katia Ricciarelli and Ruggero Raimondi.
In Japan, Miwako Matsumoto has appeared in many operas and given many recitals since her debut in Le Nozze di Figaro in 1972.
