Irene Mira Sánchez is a Spanish soprano from Granada. Her musical journey began with the piano, but her true vocation emerged at the age of fifteen when she discovered choral singing. She completed studies in piano, composition, voice, art history, and choral conducting—a comprehensive and versatile education that is reflected in the conscious approach and stylistic care of her work.

Her career spans a wide range of repertoires and contexts: she regularly performs a cappella music with Sirventes Berlin in the Noonsong series and contemporary music with the Ensemble Kromátika in Madrid. As a soloist, she has taken part in major symphonic projects, including Mozart’s Requiem in Spain and Berlin, Membra Jesu Nostri by Buxtehude for the Ballet Week in Gera, Fauré’s Requiem with the Orquesta Filarmonía de Granada, Haydn’s Stabat Mater, and Verdi’s Requiem at the Opera of Tenerife.

In addition, she has gained experience in opera, performing in productions such as Tosca with the Chorus of the Opera of Córdoba, Dido and Aeneas by Purcell, and L’elisir d’amore by Donizetti with the Chorus of the Opera of Granada. Since settling in Berlin, she has continued her career as a freelance artist, both as a soloist and ensemble singer, while also complementing her artistic work with voice teaching.
