Natalka grew up in a close knit Ukranian community in North London and was always aware of her Ukrainian heritage including its’ rich musical history.

She qualified with a first class degree from the Royal Academy of Music and began to develop her career as a professional soprano from her base in London.

Natalka Pasiczynk’s voice has been described as " truly unique and can touch the heart of any listener".
