She began studying the violin with Tibor Varga in Sion, then was admitted at the age of fifteen to Pavel Vernikov’s class at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Lyon. In 2002, she began training with Zakhar Bron at the Musikhochschule Zürich, and obtained her soloist’s diploma with the highest honours in 2007. Shortly afterwards she became concertmaster of the Sinfonieorchester St. Gallen (Switzerland), where she remained until her decisive encounter with Reinhard Goebel. She then devoted herself intensely to the study of early music with him at the Salzburg Mozarteum and regularly worked with him as a soloist.

She also participates in the creation of new works, collaborating with such composers as Daniel Schnyder, Marc-André Dalbavie, Aaron Kernis, Bechara El Khoury, Éric Tanguy, Benjamin Attahir and Thomas Demenga.

Her previous album Bach before Bach with Leonardo García Alarcón and Balázs Máté in 2021 was awarded the Diapason d'Or and a Pizzicato Supersonic. Siranossian's recording of Tartini's violin concertos with the Venice Baroque Orchestra under Andrea Marcon, released in 2020, received enthusiastic critics and various awards such as the Preis der Deutschen Schallplatten Kritik in March 2020, the Choc Classica 2020, the ICMA 2021 in the category "Baroque Instrumental" as well as the Premio della critica discografica Franco Abbiati - III Edizione - 2021. In the same year she released the violin concertos by Andreas Romberg - recorded with the Capriccio Barock Orchester – which were highly acclaimed by the press, won the Muse d’Or of Muse Baroque and was nominated for the ICMA 2022. Her first solo album, Time Reflexion, was awarded a ‘Diapason Découverte’ in 2015. Her recording of the Mendelssohn Concerto with Anima Eterna Brugge (In Time) and the CD L’Ange et le Diable in duo with Jos van Immerseel both received numerous prizes, including two ICMA (International Classical Music Awards, in 2017 and 2019).
