Plitmann's professional career began in 1998, when she premiered Pulitzer Prize winner David Del Tredici's The Spider and the Fly with The New York Philharmonic under the baton of Maestro Kurt Masur. She has since become one of the world's top headliners for premiering new works.
Comments made by her husband Eric Whitacre, collaborator Per Lichtman and Plitmann herself suggest that Plitmann has cultivated talent as a composer and lyricist in her own right and may be working on a commercial release.
