Viktoria Strzoda, known simply by her moniker, Viktoria, is proof that one can indeed straddle different passions – and in her case, the marriage of medicine and music is nothing short of magical. This enchanting fusion gives birth to a unique identity as the “Singing Doctor”, a title she bears with pride on her blossoming Instagram account, @viktoria.oficjalny.
A musical journey that began when she was merely four years old and nurtured by family and faith, Viktoria’s early fascination with the connection between sounds and imagination soon matured into a deep-seated love for music. From guitar lessons by a priest to private singing sessions and choir performances, to winning Germany’s esteemed “Jugend Musiziert” competition, and her subsequent self-discovery in piano playing, her musical roots are firmly planted and versatile.
Yet, her story takes an intriguing twist when in 2021, Viktoria moved from Germany to Poland for her medical studies, tracing back the steps her parents took in the 90s in reverse. This geographical shift, it seems, has only served to deepen her connection with music, allowing it to become a more profound part of her life.
Viktoria’s Instagram platform, launched in January 2023, quickly evolved from a fun experiment to a public diary chronicling her musical journey, thus earning her the title, the “Singing Doctor”. Here, she has managed to capture the hearts of many, and her following continues to grow. Come June, Viktoria will present her followers with a taste of her Polish roots, releasing her first EP in the Polish language. She assures her international fans, however, that English releases are on the horizon.
Viktoria’s music, much like her own life, is a colorful patchwork of experiences, emotions, and genres, offering a sense of déjà vu with each tune, ranging from pop to club music. Whether it’s a melody born out of a late-night phone call with a heartbroken friend or a ditty inspired by fleeting romances, each song encapsulates a story, a moment, or a feeling.
Her musical influences are as sincere as her approach to her craft – Beyonce, Celine Dion, and Adele. Artists who, like Viktoria, share an unwavering commitment to authenticity and a penchant for turning personal narratives into timeless pieces of music.
Looking forward, Viktoria’s sights are set on an ambitious project with a Spanish twist. As she explores new genres, she hopes to create a summer anthem that resonates with audiences worldwide. With her first Polish release, “Zostań tu”, slated for June 16th, Viktoria urges her international fans to stay tuned for her upcoming English offerings.
She is truly a testament to the power of duality – a med student healing the body, a musician mending the soul. She reminds us all that music knows no boundaries, no language, and no limits. It merely seeks to touch hearts, heal wounds, and foster connections. And that’s precisely what Viktoria, the “Singing Doctor”, intends to do.
Follow Viktoria on Instagram, listen to her on Spotify, and watch her performances on YouTube. Her journey is only beginning, and it’s one you wouldn’t want to miss.
