==Biography==
Maria Sidorova was born in Astrakhan, one of six children of Pyotr Sidorov, the executive director of the Volga Shipping company. After her father's death, ten-year-old Maria joined a local church choir to help her 27-year-old mother sustain a family.〔 It was there that her vocal abilities were first noticed. Maria engaged herself in intensive self-education and a year later became a lead in the alto section of the choir, with which she stayed until 1917.〔
In late 1917, Maria Sidorova joined the Astrakhan musical college to study the piano. She had no instrument at home, and had to stay at school to practice literally day and night. In the early 1918, she started studying vocal, originally as contralto. Regarded as one of the best in the class, she was often sent on obligatory 'tours' to sing for the Red Army soldiers and sailors. "I enjoyed success and was extremely proud of it," she later wrote. One of her tutors, Smolenskaya, started to train Maria as soprano, which Maria greatly enjoyed. "With her I studied for a year. Then the Astrakhan theatre was moved to Tsaritsyn and I decided to join its troupe, so as to go on studying with my pedagogue," the singer later recalled.〔 "() mastered a professional vocal range, demonstrating flawless precision in intonations and perfect sense of rhythm. What was most attractive in the young singer's performances was her musical and verbal expressiveness, her total involvement with the lyrics," wrote Mikhail Lvov in his 1947 biography.〔
