After a Master’s degree in Pacific cultures obtained in France, French Polynesia and New Zealand, Anne Sophie Petit graduated with a Master’s degree in solo performance at the Lausanne Conservatory of Music, and was awarded the Max Jost prize for her excellent recitals.

Young Talent of the Philippe Jaroussky Music Academy in 2019-2020, she is also a recipient of the Royaumont Foundation, and joined the Lyon Opera Studio in 2020. That same year, together with the pianist Marcell Vigh, she won the first prize of the Gustav Mahler lied competition in Geneva. Their duo Nosztalgia was invited to perform at the 2021 Lavaux Classic Festival and at the 2022 Jeunes Talents season in Paris.

She made her debut at the Opéra de Lausanne as Musetta in Bohème (2017), and has since sung the Fairy in Cendrillon (2018) and Angélique in Hervé’s operetta Les Chevaliers de la Table Ronde (2019).
