Vincė Jonuškaitė (22 January 1901 – 18 May 1997) was a leading Lithuanian mezzo-soprano opera singer who performed around the world.

Vincė Jonuškaitė-Zaunienė was born on 22 January 1901 in Subačius in Kupiškis district, Panevėžys County, in northwestern Lithuania.

In 1915, in the early days of World War I she moved to Voronezh in southwest Russia, where she entered a music school to study singing with the Latvian soloist Elza Zubitė.

In November of the same year, she made her debut as a soloist at the Kaunas State Drama Theatre, as Polina in The Queen of Spades by Tchaikovsky.

For a long time, the most important part of Lithuanian traditional clothing was the apron and it was unacceptable for a woman to appear in public without wearing one.

[2][1] Jonuškaitė was awarded the Gold Medal of La Renaissance Française, a French cultural society, in 1934.

Since 2000, an annual singing competition, which bears her name, has been held at the Lithuanian Academy of Music and Theatre.
