Trattnigg made her opera debut at the Schlosstheater Schönbrunn, singing Euridice in Gluck's Orfeo ed Euridice. She then continued to sing Cleopatra in Handel's Giulio Cesare in Egitto in Vienna, Donna Elvira in Mozart's Don Giovanni at the chamber opera at Schloss Rheinsberg, Pamina in his Die Zauberflöte, Mařenka in Smetana's The Bartered Bride and Antonia in Offenbach's The Tales of Hoffmann at the opera Klosterneuburg as well as Micaëla in Bizet's Carmen at the municipal theatre of Klagenfurt.
