Emily Zamourka

Emily Zamurka is a homeless person who has spent more than half of her life in the United States. No one would have known about this talented woman if it had not been for the video posted by the American police officer on the Web. The singer performs an opera aria on it, and her voice sounds as if she had previously performed in theater, opera or other professional stages.

Emily was born in Russia (exact city unknown) in 1964. Is her surname maiden or inherited from her husband, the woman also does not specify.

Online encyclopedias point to her Adyghe or Ossetian origins, but the exact information about her nationality remains a mystery. Zamurka is embarrassed by the increased attention, and therefore announces to journalists only dry facts from her biography, without touching on the period when she still lived in the USSR.

Music came to Emily's life in early childhood. As a schoolgirl, she attended a violin class, where she mastered playing a string instrument. Then she learned to play the piano. In 1991, when the USSR collapsed and all the borders were opened to ordinary people, Zamurka decided to move to America. In her youth, it seemed to the girl that the world was open and friendly, and in another country a happy life awaited her.

At first, the violinist was doing well. She lived in Mussoorie state, worked part-time in nursing homes and restaurants. Then she moved to Washington, settled in Vancouver. There she got a job in a local church, earning money by teaching people to play the piano and violin. Then she began teaching in New York. At that time, things were going well for her, about 60 students studied with the woman.

In 2005, Emily began to have health problems, the woman was worried about the pancreas and liver. Russian friends helped me find a clinic in Los Angeles. For some time she did not work, a friend in America helped to rent an apartment. Having recovered a little from her illness, Zamurka again began to give private violin lessons, but there were not so many students, there was not enough money to rent an apartment, then she went out into the streets of the city and played there.

Soon a friend, who had previously helped financially, died of a heart attack. From that moment on, a black streak began in the woman's life. With no shelter over her head, she was forced to live on $ 400 - a benefit from the state for the unemployed. Playing the squeak on the street became her additional income, but one day she lost her favorite instrument.

During the next "performance" a man came up and snatched the violin from his hands, and when passers-by caught up with him, he simply smashed the instrument on the ground. Emily could not buy a new one due to financial problems, she already lived on the street, slept on cardboard in the open air.

Having no other choice, Zamurka began to sing, she did not study vocal, but mastered this art as a child, imitating the performance of the compositions of Soviet artists. Visitors to the Los Angeles subway heard her voice more often; Emily chose this place for a reason, according to the woman, because of the acoustics, the songs sound better there than on the street.

As mentioned above, Zamurka does not spread information about himself, including about his personal life. Some reporters suggested that the woman once had a husband, from whom she inherited such an unusual surname for a Russian person.

In the fall of 2019, the emigrant became famous overnight. While on duty, a local police officer saw Zamurka singing in the subway. He was struck by the woman's vocals, and he began filming her on a mobile phone.

Emily got scared and asked not to do this, or at least not to post the recording on the Internet. But the man did not listen, and when he published the video on social networks, he immediately found responses in the hearts of caring people.

Reporters were looking for the Russian woman and published her story on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook, more and more people became interested in her personality. Video with singing and photos of Zamurka spread all over the world.

Then a fund was created to help a woman, it was possible to raise $ 45 thousand. She did not expect the response of such a number of people and is now grateful to everyone who did not pass by, and to the policeman who started it all.

Emily was helped not only by money. She was invited to festivals and concerts as an artist. Zamurka performed on October 5 at the opening ceremony of Little Italy in San Pedro. And now he is considering an offer from the famous producer Joel Daimon to record a disc.
