Natalie Kendy

About

Currently a Bachelor of Arts and Laws student at the University of Sydney, Natalie continues to play violin under the tutelage of Dr Evgeny Sorkin. Natalie has been playing in AYO programs since 2018 when she attended her first National Music Camp. Since then, she has continued playing in AYO at NMC and as part of the Flagship orchestra. One highlight for her was playing Strauss’s ‘Alpine Symphony’ under the direction of Sir Mark Elder at the 2022 Winter Season. Outside of AYO, Natalie was the winner of the 2019 National Youth Concerto Competition, where she had the privilege of performing the Korngold Violin Concerto with the Queensland Youth Symphony in the finals. Playing with AYO has allowed Natalie to meet lifelong friends from all around Australia, and she is looking forward to her first opportunity to perform overseas on the International Tour!
