Sasha Lazard is an American classical crossover singer. Lazard was born in New York City and grew up in Paris. She studied opera at Bennington College and the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. After graduation, Lazard performed electronic music at nightclubs in New York, Los Angeles, and Ibiza.[1][2]
Lazard released her debut album The Myth Of Red on May 7, 2002 through Higher Octave Music.[3] This album, loosely themed around the myth of Inanna descending to the underworld, appeared on the Billboard charts for both dance music and classical crossover. The album's influences include Giuseppe Verdi's La Traviata, Charles Pierre Baudelaire, and Antonio Cesti's Intorno All Idol Mio.
The song "Angeli" has been featured in the Fall 2006 Victoria's Secret campaign, the movie Kissed by an Angel, the movie Modigliani starring Andy García, and was used as the theme song for the Toronto International Film Festival.[citation needed]
Lazard collaborated with soprano Shawna Stone and Grammy award-winning producer Peter Asher on Siren, which was released on March 6, 2007, on Manhattan Records/EMI.[4]
In 2018, Lazard produced the soundtrack for the feature film Blind with Dave Eggar, Amy Lee, and Chuck Palmer.[5]
