[2] Kallisch joined the ensemble of the Zürich Opera in 1991, where she performed parts such as Cherubino in Mozart's Le nozze di Figaro and the title role of Der Rosenkavalier by Richard Strauss.
"[4] She sang the alto solo part in the premiere of Wolfgang Rihm's Deus Passus – Passions-Stücke nach Lukas on 29 August 2000, with Helmuth Rilling conducting the Gächinger Kantorei and Bach-Collegium Stuttgart, alongside Juliane Banse, Iris Vermillion, Christoph Prégardien and Andreas Schmidt.
[5] She recorded in 2002 the mezzo-soprano part of Mahler's Das Lied von der Erde, again with Gielen conducting the orchestra of the SWR.
A detailed review mentions "the closing pages are suitably inward and lonely, her final, murmured Ewig seemingly emerging from silence".
[6] Three recordings in which she participated were nominated for a Grammy Award: in 1994 Wagner's Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg in the category Best Opera Recording, in 2001 Rihm's Deus Passus in the category Best Choral Performance, and in 2003 her performance of Judith, the leading female role in Bartók's opera Bluebeard’s Castle, conducted by Péter Eötvös.
