Metodie Bujor

Metodie Bujor started his career in 2000 with a Moscow Theater troupe New Opera where he made his debut as Sparafucile in Verdi’s Rigoletto.

In the summer 2012 Bujor auditioned and was chosen to participate in the Russian version of the “Voice” which was broadcast in November 2012 on Channel One, the biggest television network in Russia and seen over twelve times zones nationwide. His breakthrough performances, demeanor and ability to charm the judges and audiences added to his already growing popularity. After the blind auditions, during the battle rounds Bujor’s coach, Russian composer Alexander Gradsky, couldn’t decide which of the artists to pick to go on to the next round. What he did instead is throw a coin.[2] It landed tails and Bujor who was one of the favorites to win, was out.

Immediately after realizing how popular Bujor had become and seeing the potential for a bright future Channel One Russia invited him to participate in one of the highest rated programs on Russian television “Two Stars”.[3] where a professional singer takes a celebrity and teaches them how to sing. The show featured at least 12 duets. Bujor’s celebrity partner turned out to be prima ballerina, Anastasia Volochkova. The first episode aired on Channel One on February 15, 2013 and the finale was broadcast on June 7, 2013.

In August 2013 Bujor starts his first solo 57-city tour called “Memories”.
