Breanna Sinclairé – Lyric Soprano


Listen Later

Transgender opera singer Breanna Sinclairé felt trapped in the Tenor repertoire where she had never felt at ease, and finally told her teachers that she would be physically transitioning, to their complete astonishment. She became the first trans woman of the opera programme at San Francisco Conservatory of Music, first tackling Mezzo repertoire, and later developing into the voice she feels most comfortable with, the Lyric Soprano that she is today. Her physical transition was a journey that lasted for over eleven years. Since then, she has been the first trans woman to perform the National Anthem at a professional sporting event, the first trans singer to perform with the San Francisco Symphony and at the Walt Disney Concert Hall, and her operatic career is just getting started. Having survived abuse and homelessness on her journey, Breanna is now determined to use her voice.to bring peace.
