About Me

ABOUT ME

A strange story)
Grew-up in St.-Petersburg, my first background is history of russian literature, I still teach children a couple of hours a week with a great pleasure. A few years ago I turned to music, concentrating on Earlymusic (mainly european 17-18 centuries), studying and performing this amasing repertoir as a singer.
I'm deeply interested in curatorial projects, working on several crazy ideas considering earlymusic in my beautiful and hopeless city.

Ah! Almost forgot my summer job story. By the way, for couple of months I turn into a tour guide! So welcome for any information.
