As she grew older, she continued to hone her skills, taking voice lessons and participating in various musical productions.

Since then, Hanna has gone on to perform in numerous productions around the world, including at the Royal Opera House in London, the Paris Opera, and the Salzburg Festival in Austria. She has played a wide range of roles, from the fiery Carmen in Bizet's "Carmen" to the tragic Mimi in Puccini's "La Boheme."
