Her journey is marked by a passionate pursuit of vocal excellence and artistic expression.In the 2025-2026 season, Evgeniya is immersing herself in the challenging role of Offred in the contemporary opera The Handmaid’s Tale.

Her recent performances include the enchanting Le Prince Charmant in Massenet's Cendrillon and the complex Donna Elvira in Mozart's Don Giovanni, roles that allowed her to blend lyrical beauty with dramatic intensity.


Back to Russia

Between 2022 and 2024, Evgeniya embraced teaching, sharing her passion for singing both privately and at a state music school in the Saint Petersburg region.Evgeniya took part in Operalia, The World Opera Competition, in 2021, a key moment that highlighted her rising international profile.


Europe

Her artistic path took her to the prestigious 'Centre de Perfeccionament' Plácido Domingo at Palau de les Arts Reina Sofía in Valencia from 2019 to 2021. There, she brought to life characters such as Tisbe in La Cenerentola, Silvia in L’isola disabitata, Modestina in Il Viaggio a Reims, Zweite Magd in Elektra, and La Marchande de Journaux in Les Mamelles de Tiresias. Collaborating with renowned musicians like Christopher Moulds, Roger Vignoles, Emilio Sagi, and Marc Albrecht enriched her artistic voice and deepened her understanding of operatic storytelling. She is featured on the 2020 album ‘Vincerò!’ by Polish tenor Piotr Beczala, marking a milestone in her recording career. In 2018/2019, she studied at Gstaad Vocal Academy under Silvana Bartoli and took part in international masterclasses, and later was invited by the Cecilia Bartoli Foundation to continue her studies in Salzburg.


Russia

The artistic path began with a debut as Marta in Tchaikovsky’s Iolanta at the St. Petersburg Conservatory Theatre. That same season, she recorded 'Pesni iz lesa', a contemporary song cycle by Dmitry Elyseykin, marking her early interest in modern music. The following year, she joined a vocal ensemble in Saint Petersburg, touring the UK with 53 concerts and recording an album of Russian sacred music. Alongside ensemble work, she portrayed Flora Bervoix in Verdi’s La Traviata with the youth opera project La Bohème. This period includes the recording of Mark Mitzkevich's 'Malenkiy Teatr' — a bold, contemporary piece that showcased her expressive depth and musical versatility.
