Zarui Vardanean is an Honor Artist of the Republic of Moldova. The first prize winner of the National and International Opera Singers Competitions. In 1991 Zarui Vardanean acclaimed herself as a leading artist at the National Opera and Ballet Theater Republic of Moldova and as an adjunct faculty of Opera and Voice at the Academy of Music, Theatre and Fine Arts Chisinau, Republic of Moldova. Zarui is well-known to audiences in Europe and was a welcome guest artist at the National Opera Bucharest, Manchester Opera House, Dublin National Concert Hall, The Romanian Athenaeum, Edinburgh Playhouse, Coliseum de Lisbon, and the famous Royal Albert Hall. She participated in the National and International Festivals. She was a welcome guest artist at the National Radio and TV, where she recorded hundreds of videos and audio materials with the National Orchestra Radio and TV Moldova. Still, TV Moldova is broadcasting her recordings, although she immigrated to the US in 2013. However, immigration didn't stop her from continuing her artistic career in Europe. She actively performed in the UK and Ireland as a part of the International Opera and Ballet Company, UK, until the company closed its doors in 2018. From that time, Zarui Vardanean became an active music educator in the Northwestern Chicago Suburbs. She believes that performing arts can enrich our life with happiness and success. That is why her motto is: Success on Stage! Success in Life!
