About Natalia
Australian violinist Natalia Harvey is a sought-after concertmaster, chamber musician, teacher and collaborator, her expertise ranging from contemporary music to historical performance. Her performances have been described as “incendiary” (Limelight) and “fresh, exciting and inventive” (Classic Melbourne).
A recipient of the Holdsworth Family Bach Prize and the Kate Buchdahl Memorial Award, Natalia is a laureate of solo competitions such as the Gisborne International Music Competition (NZ) and the Australian Youth Classical Music Competition. She was a 2017 Emerging Artist with the Australian Chamber Orchestra, an Academist with the Mahler Chamber Orchestra (Germany), and a solo artist in the 2022 International Musicians Seminar in Prussia Cove (UK). Natalia has been a featured soloist with the Melbourne Chamber Orchestra and with festival orchestras around Australia. Her greatest musical passion, however, is chamber music, particularly string quartets, a passion which has seen her perform with some of the finest ensembles in the Southern Hemisphere, including the Australian Chamber Orchestra, the Flinders Quartet, the Australian Octet and the New Zealand String Quartet, and internationally with the London-based Echea Quartet.
Natalia was Principal Second Violin of the Melbourne Chamber Orchestra for seven years, and has had the pleasure of performing as Guest Concertmaster with the Christchurch Symphony Orchestra, the Auckland Philharmonia and the Sydney Symphony Orchestra.
Educational background:
Bachelor of Music (Australian National University), Graduate of the Australian National Academy of Music, Concertmaster Artist Diploma Stauffer Center for Strings (Cremona, Italy), Juilliard Orchestral Conducting (USA)

My teaching experience is diverse, and is constantly informed by my ongoing career as a performer. I teach students of all ages and levels of ability, including beginners, adults as well as high-level aspiring professional musicians. I have mentored young musicians in various roles as part of my work with ensembles such as Omega Ensemble, the Melbourne Chamber Orchestra, and the Auckland Philharmonia. I have also worked as a Guest Lecturer at institutions such as Monash University, Sydney University and the New Zealand School of Music at Victoria University in Wellington.
I believe that everyone possesses a unique artistic voice that deserves to be nurtured. My goal as a teacher is to foster an enduring passion for music while equipping students with the skills they need to become confident, versatile and independent musicians. Technique on an instrument is like language; in language, the more words we have to describe concepts, the more nuanced those concepts become. Therefore the purpose of building technique is to increase one’s expressive vocabulary.
Clear expectations drive a will to achieve clearly defined goals. Students will see immediate improvement in their playing and overall artistic development by learning how to:
- Find physical comfort and ease on the instrument through posture and flexibility
- Develop foundational techniques required for independent learning
- Refine aural skills essential for developing sound and musical versatility
- Practice efficiently
Lesson duration is a minimum of 30 minutes and a maximum of 1 hour, depending on the student. See if it’s the right fit for you with the first lesson free of charge!
Further tuition and mentorship is available for chamber music, as well as those wishing to study theory, aural and musicology (including extra help with exams).
