Lea Sophie Krüger (Contralto)

Born: Maulbronn, Baden-Württemberg , Germany

The German contralto, Lea Sophie Krüger, received piano and organ lessons there during her school years. She discovered her interest in singing as part of her church music studies, which she successfully completed with a bachelor's degree. Since 2022, she has been studying opera and concert singing, as well as vocal pedagogy in Professor Regina Kabis-Elsner's class at the Musikhochschule Freiburg.

As a concert singer, Lea Krüger has already taken on the alto parts of important church music works, including W.A. Mozart's Requiem, J.S.
