More and more performers with operatic voices and excellent repertoire appear on the modern stage. Recognition in the theater and not only was received by the singer Ksenia Dezhneva. In 2015, the performer who conquered viewers in the Main Stage competition won a special prize from the Ministry of Culture.
Among professionals, the name of Ksenia Andreevna Dezhneva enjoys well-deserved respect. She is not only a performer, but also a teacher of vocal skills at the Gnessin School.
Start
The biography of the future celebrity began in 1980. The child was born in Zhukovsky near Moscow on October 26. My grandmother was well versed in classical music, and my father sang from his youth to the rock band "Paradox".
The parents sent their daughter to both a general education and a choral art school. Ksyusha continued her musical education from 1992 to the children's art school of her hometown.
In 1996, the graduate became a student at the Gnessin School. She chose choral conducting as her future specialty. Then there was the Moscow Tchaikovsky Conservatory in the class of solo singing, which Dezhneva graduated with honors, and her postgraduate studies.
In 2004, a professional career began at the Jalil Theater in Tatarstan. A third-year student made her debut in The Marriage of Figaro. Since 2010, the artist has been teaching the art of vocal at the Gnessin School. Ksenia also teaches students of the conservatory, of which she was herself.
Success
The singer is a soloist of the Bolshoi Theater. In 2011, she took part in the International Vocal Competition, winning the highest award. A year later, cooperation with Alexander Serov began. The duet with Valery Meladze sounded for the first time in the New Year's program in 2014. At the same time, Ksenia became a laureate of the Masterpieces of World Music vocal competition dedicated to Natalya Shpiller.
Having decided to try her hand at a new role, the singer passed the casting and became a participant in the TV show "Main Stage". She advanced to the super final, winning a special prize.
In 2020, Dezhneva again managed to amaze fans, appearing in the form of Ellochka the cannibal in the musical performance "12 chairs" at the theater of Nadezhda Babkina "Russian Song".
Plans and their implementation
Ksenia created the youth group "Classics of the Genre" with colleagues who advocate a non-standard approach to the classics.
The artist is planning a project in the form of a cycle of concert evenings "Opera and Beyond" at the end of autumn. The unusual format assumes not only bright numbers, but also an excursion into the history of the opera.
At the Bolshoi Theater, the star plays Alexandra Yepanchina in the opera The Idiot. Interesting in the production is the harmonious combination of contemporary music and strikingly effective scenography.
On and off stage
Dezhneva's magnificent voice brought her millions of fans not only at home, but also abroad. According to colleagues, talent, striving for high and hard work helped the star to achieve success. The artist herself is sure that she owes her success to her parents and mentors.
Ksenia does not say anything about her personal life anywhere. True, after the appearance in the press of her joint photographs at the "Slavianski Bazaar" with Gleb Matveychuk, guesses began about the relationship between them. But not a single comment from young people followed.
The artist prefers to spend her free time with friends, travel, watch films and read. She easily lets go of grievances and seeks to help people as much as possible.
