Musical career
Zoldan is a classically trained mezzo-soprano singer. She has combined her musical activities in the most diverse genres, singing in several operas in France for many years and worked simultaneously with some heavy metal bands and other personal projects. Two of her most notable appearances were in Trail of Tears's Existentia (2007) and Turisas's Battle Metal (2004), where she was the main female vocalist.
On September 8, 2016, Norwegian gothic metal band Sirenia announced that Zoldan is their new official vocalist, after the Spanish singer Ailyn Gimenez was dismissed without her being noticed. Previously, she had worked with that group regularly for 13 years and was part of their Sirenian Choir. She contributed with lead vocals on a cover of Leonard Cohen "First We Take Manhattan", included in the EP Sirenian Shores (2004).
