Sophie Leleu started her artistic career with drama studies at the "Ecole Nationale du Val Maubuée" with Mourad Mansouri and Guy Ségalen and also studied Celtic harp with Didier Donon. In 2006 she graduated with honours from the Guildhall School of Music & Drama in London where she studied singing with Laura Sarti. Back in Paris, she took master classes with Udo Reineman, Paul Esswood and Emma Kirkby with focus on opera and Lied. She has been performing in concerts and recitals in London, Berlin, Paris and throughout France, where she performed all kinds of works, from baroque to contemporary music. Her opera repertoire includes, amongst others, Orpheus (Gluck), Rinaldo and Sesto (Giulio Cesare in Egitto) by Händel, as well as Penelope (Monteverdi). In 2009 she performed Galathée and Bergère in the world premiere of Pastorale (Pesson) at the Théâtre du Châtelet. Also in Paris, she interpreted the title role in La Grande Duchesse de Gérolstein (Offenbach). During her studies in London, she launched the ensemble "L'oeil ou la lune?", with which she participated in several English (Dowland, Purcell and Haendel) and Italian music programs (Caccini, Monteverdi, Marini, Strozzi, Rossi). Her lied repertoire includes works from Brahms, Mahler, Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov. She has also created the highly regarded solo program "Je suis comme je suis", about cabaret and the expressionistic lied with works by Kurt Weill and Joseph Kosma.
