Viktoria is a versatile singer being able to perform a great range of genres with a vast repertoire to suit any event. Her beautiful voice, skills, energy, and comfort on stage has been noticed and complemented many times by credible critics and reviewers.

"With a striking stage presence, Viktoria Bolonina as Kashcheyevna, was the standout. Her cold stare, evil smirk and dark mezzo were bewitching."

                                   -Bridget Davies, The Age

"Beautiful Viktoria Bolonina played Diana with a rich mezzo soprano and ease of style on stage."

-Lliane Clarke , ClassikON

"Bolonina proved in one fell swoop that Rimsky’s opera is real drama and that Kashcheyevna is fit to stand next to Kundry. Nothing Bolonina did or sang for the entire time she was on stage was wrong. Utterly, utterly accomplished in singing and acting, she could — frankly — have been singing the Yellow Pages: it would have been every bit as riveting.

                        -John Weretka, Classic Melbourne

"...her second role as Secrecy, was stunning, her voice as smooth and tenebrous as the velvet of her cloak"

-Angus McPherson , Limelight magazine
