Sonia Kiang is a French born Chinese composer, lyricist, singer and musical theatre performer.
Her music is deeply rooted in cinematic narratives and takes inspiration in the emotions she can feel as an actress on stage. She enjoys writing in various styles, from intimate and minimalistic piano solos to emotional orchestral pieces, or experimental neo-soul and contemporary electronic tracks.
She produces music, writes lyrics and librettos for theatre, musical theatre, music bands and also composes music for short films and other visual medias. Furthermore, she often performs in her live projects (see more below).
Sonia graduated valedictorian from the Musicien.ne des Musiques Actuelles course at Trempolino in Nantes, and studied film music and orchestral composition in Courts-On in Paris.
