Although lacking a professional musical education, Velinskaya made her stage debut in Kiev in 1871 as Marguerite in [[ Gounod]]'s ''Faust''. After spending two years in [[Kharkov]] (1875–76), she became a soloist at the Mariinsky Theatre in [[Saint Petersburg]] (1877–87), before making guest appearances at the Bolshoi Theatre in [[Moscow]]. From 1895, Velinskaya was a soloist at the Panayevsky Theatre in [[Saint Petersburg]], where she spent twelve years before touring the Russian provinces. [[César Cui]] rated her talents very highly.
