horn

Natalia Edwards began her musical journey on the horn at age 13, initially taking lessons at school before advancing her studies at the University of Melbourne under mentors Saul Lewis and Nicolas Fleury. Her interest in chamber music deepened in 2018 when she was awarded a fellowship to attend the Norfolk Chamber Festival in the USA. This experience allowed her to collaborate with talented musicians and work closely with the distinguished brass faculty of the Yale School of Music.

Since graduating with a Master’s in Orchestral Performance from the University of Melbourne in 2022, Natalia joined the Royal Australian Navy Band, where she now serves as first horn in the Concert Band. Her versatile role includes performing with both the Brass Trio and Woodwind Quintet, showcasing her adaptability and skill across varied musical styles. In addition, Natalia regularly performs with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and Orchestra Victoria.

Natalia also enjoys performing with the Southern Cross Soloists, a group she loves for its dynamic repertoire and vibrant energy.
