Maria Anna Braunhofer (15 January 1748 – 20 June 1819) was an operatic soprano, who created several roles in operas by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.[1]

She was the daughter of F. J. Braunhofer, organist at Mondsee. She trained as a singer in Venice (1761–64) at the expense of Archbishop Sigismund von Schrattenbach[2] and was employed at the Salzburg court. She created the part of Die göttliche Gerechtigkeit (Divine Justice) in Mozart's Die Schuldigkeit des ersten Gebots[3] and was Giacinta in La finta semplice.
