Assyrian-American, Leah Rose Fisher, is a New York City based Singer, Actor, and Voice Teacher. She holds a Master’s Degree in Music from New York University with an advanced certificate in Vocal Pedagogy. She is active on stage in concerts, theatre, musical theatre, and opera; in the recording studio for both albums and voiceover work; and in film and television.
Over the years, she has been able to sing for audiences large and small both nationally as well as across the globe. She has had the opportunity to sing for Assyrian communities in D.C., Chicago, Arizona, and across California, including the honor of singing for the Patriarch of the Assyrian Church of the East, His Holiness Mar Awa III.
Since its inception, Leah has been honored to sing with Assyrian Women, a choral ensemble created by the Assyrian Arts Institute (AAI) in 2018. She has sung as a soprano in the choir at every live concert to date, been a part of many of the Assyrian Women videos during our AAI@Home video series, shared with us some of her solo music in our AAI Spotlight On video series, and in 2022, she stepped into the role of Choral Coordinator for the group, working tirelessly with AAI’s leaders and fellow singers to bring their music to life, both for live concerts as well as their recently released Christmas album: The Joy of Christmas, available exclusively on iTunes. She is currently working on her own upcoming solo album to be released soon!
As a voice teacher, Leah has a private studio teaching singing to all ages and levels, and she is honored to be the voice teacher for the Assyrian Arts Institute’s Assyrian Children. Leah’s students have been seen on Broadway, off Broadway, in D.C. singing at the Smithsonian and at NPR, in film and television, as well as singer-songwriters sharing their music in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, D.C., and Nashville.
Leah looks forward to future opportunities to spread the Good News in music, on stage, in the recording studio, and in film and television.
