ABOUT
Leandra Ramm, mezzo-soprano, is praised for “beautiful and quite moving” performances (Nordstjernan Newspaper) and “brilliant” artistry (San Francisco Classical Voice). She has appeared with leading institutions including San Francisco Opera and at venues such as Carnegie Hall and Zellerbach Hall. With San Francisco Symphony, performances include alto soloist in Bach’s Magnificat under Jane Glover, Bernstein’s Chichester Psalms conducted by Michael Tilson Thomas, and as a soloist in Ecstasy at SoundBox.
Upcoming roles of the 2026 season include Jan and the Conscience Trio in Case Closed with West Edge Opera’s Snapshots; her Opera Modesto debut as Kuchtík in Rusalka; and Suzy in La Rondine, a co-production of Pocket Opera and Mercury Theater. Concert appearances in 2026 feature Leandra as the alto soloist in Elijah with Zephyr Symphony and as a guest soloist at San Francisco City Chorus’ Spring Concert.
Equally at home in opera, concert, and new works, Ms. Ramm is recognized for her vivid interpretations of both classical and contemporary repertoire. Recent operatic highlights include First Witch in Dido’s Ghost and Dido and Aeneas with Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra, Third Lady in The Magic Flute with Livermore Valley Opera, Lapák in The Cunning Little Vixen, Prince Orlofsky in Die Fledermaus with Pocket Opera and Dinah in Trouble in Tahiti with Mercury Theater.
A sought-after concert soloist, Ms. Ramm’s recent engagements include alto soloist in Duruflé’s Requiem with SF City Chorus and Britten’s Rejoice in the Lamb with San Francisco Choral Society, and Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony with Silicon Valley Philharmonic. She has also collaborated with Sacramento Baroque Soloists and UC Alumni Chorus at Cal Performances’ Hertz Hall. Renowned for her vivid portrayals of pants roles, Ms. Ramm has received acclaim for Anybodys in West Side Story with Opera San José and the Rooster and Blue Jay in The Cunning Little Vixen with West Edge Opera. Her work in contemporary opera includes appearances in Lisa Bielawa’s Vireo and the live piano-vocal premiere of Centuries in the Hours at The Stone.
Ms. Ramm is featured on the Grammy-nominated recording of Ligeti’s Lux Aeterna and the cast album of Evan Mack and Joshua McGuire’s Lucinda y las Flores de la Nochebuena.
