"From the opening eight chords [Rachmaninov's Second Concerto] of increasing tension and the wide arpeggios, con passione, which followed, Natalia had both this affecting music and the delighted audience in her skillful hands." -- John D. Seagrave, for the Los Alamos Monitor

"A large, attentive, and appreciative audience sat spellbound as Natalia drew from the Fuller Lodge Steinway an endless array of artistic colors and emotions. From the precise conversations of the opening Bach Prelude and Fugue to the blurring speed and power of the final Kazhlaev Sonata, Natalia communicated through the international language of music her understanding, technical mastery, and sensitivity to a broad canvas of musical styles." -- Ruth Williams, for the Los Alamos Monitor

"...[Natalia's] enthusiasm and love of the piano is contagious; and it seems her students have caught it." -- Los Alamos Monitor
