“Genealogy” will represent Armenia in the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest. Out of six members in the group, we are pleased to announce that Mary-Jean O’Doherty Vasmatzian, an Armenian-Australian opera singer will be the fifth participant – representing continent Australia.
Mary-Jean’s stunning and crystal clear voice of coloratura soprano filled many famous Opera Houses.
