Personal Profiles

Anja Lipfert - Sopran

I was born on a beautiful Autumn Sunday in 1980. Quite early my mother noticed my musical talent and sent me to the MDR-Kinderchor (Middle Germany's Radio Childrens' Choir), where I spent much of my free time up to my final tests at school.

After that I began to study social sciences, political sciences and journalism and looked for a new choir: amici musicae. That is where I met Ludwig, who brought me to Calmus in 2001. That's when I noticed that singing is more than hobby for me and since October I've been studying under Adelheid Vogel at the Musikhochschule in Leipzig.

In the ensemble I am unique in two ways: I am not only the only woman, but the only true "Leipzigerin."
