Winner of the prestigious Queen Elisabeth Competition, German-Canadian soprano Anna-Sophie Neher stands out on international stages for her "luminous timbre and excellent agility" and "singing that captures the ear and holds it hostage" (Ludwig van Toronto). 

 Anna-Sophie's eternal passion for acting, languages and disguises has led her to perfect her operatic skills. She recently appeared at the Opéra de Paris in Enescu's opera Œdipe and at the Palais Garnier in Britten's Peter Grimes. Anna-Sophie is a proud graduate of the Ensemble Studio of Toronto's Canadian Opera Company where she has sung many roles, including Euridice (Orfeo ed Euridice), Pamina (Die Zauberflöte), Gretel (Hänsel und Gretel), Micaëla (Carmen) and Marzelline (Fidelio).

A former pianist by training, Anna-Sophie also finds much of herself in her role as musician. Her orchestral collaborations have led her to explore a vast repertoire ranging from Bach and Mozart to Pärt and Williams. She has appeared as soloist with numerous orchestras, including the Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal conducted by Bernard Labadie, the Orchestre Métropolitain conducted by Yannick Nézet-Séguin, and the Toronto, Calgary and Gatineau Symphony Orchestras.

During her studies at the Conservatoire de musique de Montréal and McGill University, Anna-Sophie won several prizes and scholarships: 1st prize at the OSM Manuvie Competition (2017), 1st prize at the Wirth Vocal Prize Competition (2017), the Christina and Louis Quillico Competition (2019), the Prix Étoile Stingray (2017) and several Desmarais scholarships.
