Leandra Ramm: Balancing Motherhood and Artistry


Listen Later

Mezzo-soprano Leandra Ramm is a dynamic performer praised for her “beautiful and quite moving” artistry (Nordstjernan Newspaper) and “brilliant” talent (San Francisco Classical Voice).

Leandra has graced some of the world’s most prestigious stages, from Carnegie Hall to the San Francisco Opera House, earning acclaim for her versatility and heartfelt performances. As a featured soloist with the San Francisco Symphony and collaborator on Grammy-nominated recordings, her artistry has captivated audiences worldwide.

But Leandra’s story doesn’t end on the stage. A proud mother of four little ones (6 months, 6, 8 and 10 years old), she balances the demanding life of an opera singer with the joys and challenges of family life.

And in 2025, she’s set to release her highly anticipated debut album, Watching Glass, I Hear You—a project that comprises works derived from predominantly female-penned poetry and personal accounts. The album is a testament to both the emotional depth of song repertoire, and to femininity in its beauty and its struggles.

Leandra’s inspiring journey balances the opera stage, the recording studio, baby nursery and motherhood!

Watching Glass, I Hear You, on Ablaze Records is set for worldwide release on February 28, 2025.

Leandra can be found at her website, on Instagram and Tiktok @LeandraRamm, and on Facebook @LeandraRammMusic
