about

Angelina was born and raised in Minsk, Belarus. She fell in love with singing when she met her voice teacher, Veronika Yanovskaya, who introduced Angelina to jazz music and sparked her fascination with Ella Fitzgerald’s improvisation and Ray Charles’s soulful singing. While receiving her primary education, Angelina participated in international vocal competitions and festivals in Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States. At 17, Angelina released her first single, Off the Road.

That same year she was awarded a scholarship to attend Adelphi University’s Honors College and moved to the United States. Initially, she intended to follow her parents’ footsteps in medicine, but later decided to pursue music and double-majored in Jazz Studies and Cognitive Neuroscience. Angelina graduated summa cum laude in May 2022. 

Angelina has performed at top jazz venues in the U.S. and abroad, including Mezzrow Jazz Club, Ornithology Jazz Club, Birdland Jazz Club, Konzerthaus Berlin, the Clifford Brown Jazz Festival (as part of the Boysie Lowery Living Jazz Residency), among many others. She has worked with established musicians like Luis Bonilla, Michael Kanan, Matt Baker, Paul Gill, Misha Tsiganov, and others. In 2024 and 2025 Angelina became the finalist of the prestigious Ella Fitzgerald Competition. Most recently, Angelina released her second single Sny, and is working on her debut album. She is currently pursuing her Masters Degree at Purchase College and is performing and teaching in NYC.
