Opera insider. The person who will make you love something you thought wasn't for you.
From Novosibirsk, Siberia to Carnegie Hall — and now to your phone screen.
The Short Version
I grew up in a family of opera singers in Siberia. I trained at the Glinka Conservatory, performed at NOVAT, and made my Carnegie Hall debut within a year of arriving in the US. Now I make TikToks about opera that get watched by people who swore they didn't care about opera.

Opera Was Always Popular Entertainment.
We're Bringing That Back.
A recurring gathering — not a course, not a lecture — for anyone who wants opera to be part of their actual life. We start with La Bohème. Then La Traviata. Then, if you're ready, Eugene Onegin — which almost no English-language program touches.
For curious beginners
Finally understand what you're hearing — the story, the voice, why it hits the way it does.
For parents & real life
Play it in the car, around your kids. Then once a week we meet and talk about what we heard.
For professional singers
A place to say what a role really takes. Not a masterclass — a conversation from the inside.
What You'll Find Here
The Bio
Trained at the Glinka Conservatory, a Carnegie Hall debut, and a life spent inside opera houses — read the story behind the voice.
The Workshop
A weekly live session that turns opera from intimidating to irresistible. No dress code. No prior knowledge required.
The Conversation
Questions answered live. Curiosities indulged. This is not a lecture — it's a conversation with someone who grew up inside the art form.
From the Workshop
“I went in knowing nothing about opera and came out obsessed. Polina makes it feel like gossip about people who happen to sing beautifully.”
Workshop Attendee
“The first session was a dollar and I would have paid full price after the first ten minutes. Completely changed how I listen to music.”
Workshop Attendee
“She explains the backstage reality and the vocal mechanics without ever talking down to you. Rare combination of warmth and expertise.”
