[Item Description]

Contralto Yevgeniya Zbruyeva (186?-1936)  Her singing career was naturally prompted by her father, Pyotr Bulakhov, who was a singer and composer. After graduating from the Moscow Conservatory, where she studied with Yelisaveta Lavrovskaya, she joined the Bolshoi in 1893. She was also seen at the Mariinsky Theatre after 1905. She was a possessor of a beautiful voice that was even, deep and rich throughout its range. Her roles were well thought out and she paid particular attention to her diction and the text. She greatest roles were Marfa (Khovanshchina), and Glinka's Vanya and Ratmir. After her retirement from the stage she taught at the conservatory in St. Petersburg
