Varvara Tishina, soprano

A voice that tells stories

Originally trained as a violinist, Varvara Tishina brings a rare musicianship to vocal performance — her lyric soprano combines warm timbre with agility in the upper register, sustained by long legato phrasing.

She is drawn to roles where the voice must do more than sound beautiful: it must reveal a mind, a memory, a changing heart. Her work moves between the expressive depth of her Slavic background and the clarity and precision of Western European performance tradition.

"I am drawn to roles where the voice must do more than sound beautiful — it must reveal a mind, a memory, a changing heart."
— Varvara Tishina
