Isabel Strauss [Strauß] (1928-1973) was a German operatic soprano. She appeared in Munich, Bern, Amsterdam, and Brussels, as well as singing Gutrune in Wieland Wagner's 1963 production of Götterdämmerung, in Cologne. Also in 1963, she portrayed Marta in a film of Tiefland.

Following a 1973 performance of Götterdämmerung, she was a victim of a double-suicide, with the conductor Fritz Janota, in a forest near Bern.
