Sophia Seemann studied at the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts with Prof. Barbara Locher, as well as parts of her Master's at the Swiss Opera Studio Biel, completing her studies successfully in the summer of 2019. Her training was further enriched by masterclasses and vocal input from Philippe Herreweghe, Carlos Mena, Peter Kooij, Arianna Savall, Alex Potter, and Sandra Trattnigg.

 

In 2024 and 2025, she was selected by Collegium Vocale Gent for the masterclass within the Bach Academy Bruges in Belgium, followed by a concert under the direction of Philippe Herreweghe. She also performed as a soloist during a masterclass at the Collegium Vocale Crete Senesi Festival in Tuscany, also organized by Collegium Vocale Gent. 

 

In July 2024, Sophia was a selected participant in the 24th International Bach Competition in Leipzig. Baroque music is her great passion and the focus of her artistic work.

 

Sophia sings concerts throughout Switzerland, such as in the fall of 2023, performing Saint-Saëns’ Christmas Oratorio and Haydn's Nelson Mass. In 2024, she performed Mozart’s Requiem in Küsnacht, and Dvořák’s Mass in D in Entlebuch and Schwyz. In the realm of opera and music theatre, she played the lead role of Sora in the operetta "Gasparone" by Carl Millöcker in Beinwil am See in the spring of 2020, and at the end of 2022, she appeared as Grilletta in the opera "Der Apotheker" by Joseph Haydn.

 

In the fall of 2024, Sophia performed with KlassikLabor at the Stadttheater Olten as part of the Coffeehouse Concerts, presenting works by Kurt Weill and Friedrich Holländer, and in December 2024, she gave a concert featuring early Baroque music as part of the Sternschnuppen Olten series.
