Kcenia Koutorjevski is “a force to be reckoned with” (NCOC).

The young Russian-Canadian mezzo-soprano, praised for her “rich vocal tones” (The Beach Metro), has performed an impressive range of roles, including Dorabella (Così fan tutte, UofT Opera 2025), Julius Caesar (Julius Caesar, SOLT 2023), Ruggiero (Alcina, UWO 2021), and Madame de la Haltière (Cendrillon, UofT Opera 2024).

​

Kcenia holds an ARCT in piano performance and completed her Master’s in Operatic Performance at the University of Toronto in 2025 under the mentorship of Elizabeth McDonald. She is the recipient of numerous distinctions, including the London Opera Guild Scholarship, the Adrianne Pieczonka Award for Vocal Excellence, the Ontario Graduate Scholarship, and was a finalist in the 2025 National Capital Opera Competition.

​

Drawn to classical music from an early age, Kcenia continues to channel that early spark into her artistic life. She is rapidly establishing herself within Canada’s opera scene, performing across the country. Beyond the stage, she teaches voice and piano in Toronto and is dedicated to making opera and classical music accessible, connective, and relevant to today’s audiences.
