Classical Crossover Singer

Natali is a striking talent of the upcoming generation that is consistently forging her own artistic path. 

At the age of seven Natali began interpreting her favourite songs in such an emotive style that all her relatives noticed her talent. A year later, when she started taking lessons with the leading opera singer Lenka Šmídová, a long-time soloist of the National Theatre Opera in Prague, she had already attracted the attention of many professional musicians and leading music producers from all over the world.

Together with concert pianist Ludmila Santini, they performed, among other things, at the baroque castle in Liblice (Central Bohemian Region), in the Vratislav Hall of the Collegiate Chapter of Sts. Peter and Paul in Vyšehrad (Prague) and in Mladota's House at Prague Castle.

Natali es un sorprendente talento de la nueva generación que no deja de forjar su propio camino artístico. 

A los siete años, Natali empezó a interpretar sus canciones favoritas con un estilo tan emotivo que todos sus familiares se dieron cuenta de su talento. Un año más tarde, cuando empezó a tomar clases con la destacada cantante de ópera Lenka Šmídová, solista durante muchos años de la Ópera del Teatro Nacional de Praga, ya había llamado la atención de muchos músicos profesionales y destacados productores musicales de todo el mundo.

Junto con la concertista de piano Ludmila Santini, actuaron, entre otros lugares, en el castillo barroco de Liblice (región de Bohemia Central), en la Sala Vratislav de la Colegiata de San Pedro y San Pablo de Vyšehrad (Praga) y en la Casa de Mladota del Castillo de Praga.

Natali ist ein auffälliges Nachwuchstalent, das konsequent seinen eigenen künstlerischen Weg geht. 

Im Alter von sieben Jahren begann Natali, ihre Lieblingslieder so gefühlvoll zu interpretieren, dass alle ihre Verwandten auf ihr Talent aufmerksam wurden. Als sie ein Jahr später begann, bei der führenden Opernsängerin Lenka Šmídová, einer langjährigen Solistin des Nationaltheaters Prag, Unterricht zu nehmen, waren bereits viele professionelle Musiker und führende Musikproduzenten aus der ganzen Welt auf sie aufmerksam geworden.

Zusammen mit der Konzertpianistin Ludmila Santini traten sie unter anderem im Barockschloss in Liblice (Mittelböhmen), im Vratislav-Saal des Stiftskapitels St. Peter und Paul in Vyšehrad (Prag) und im Mladota-Haus auf der Prager Burg auf.
