The Polish soprano, Aleksandra Lewandowska, began her musical road studying violin and piano. Later she turned to singing. She graduated with distinction from the Music Academy in Poznan, Poland, in the class of Wojtek Drabowicz (Class of 2007), and continued as a student of postgraduate studies at the University of Music Franz Liszt in Weimar, Germany (Class of 2008).
Having always loved early music, Aleksandra Lewandowska also now performs modern repertoire with enthusiasm (notable collaborations include projects with the excellent Swiss quartet, Quatuor Sine Nomine). She has a well-estabilished international career as a lyrical singer (solo and ensemble) and since 2010 has been regularly singing with leading groups and conductors such as Philippe Herreweghe (recording CD's with music of J.S. Bach and C. Gesualdo with Collegium Vocale Gent, since 2009), Jos van Veldhoven (Nederlandse Bachvereniging, since 2011), Stephan MacLeod (Gli Angeli Genève, since 2011), John Duxbury (Cantatio), Wrocław Baroque Orchestra as well as Christophe Coin, Václav Luks, Yves Corboz, Andrew Parrott, Iván Fischer, Giovanni Antonini, Skip Sempé, Daniel Reuss, Alexander Weimann, Christoph Spering, Peter Neumann and Michael Willens.
Aleksandra Lewandowska has been a guest artist at festivals including Musikfest Bremen, Bachwoche Stuttgart, Thüringer Bachwochen, Festival Oude Muziek (Utrecht), Early Music Vancouver, Festival de Saintes, Lumine Voice Festival of Lofoten, Kulturwald Festspiele Bayerischer Wald, Vratislavia Cantans, Chopin and his Europe.
