A compelling storyteller, soprano and actress Natalia Bychkova performs a versatile combination of operatic, art song, and musical theater repertoire.

Currently she teaches voice with New City School of Music and Music To Your Home NY, where she helps students build strong technique, confidence and artistic expression.

"I went to my very first voice lesson ever (!) with Natalia and it was incredible! I’ve always been curious about training my voice, but was nervous to take the leap and book a session. I’m so happy I booked a session with Natalia because she provided such a safe and encouraging space for me to sing. By the end of the session there was noticeable improvement in my technique and I realized there was nothing to be nervous about! Voice is an instrument and with the proper guidance and encouragement I was able to improve after just one session. I highly recommend booking voice lessons with Natalia!!

I am a teacher, director, playwright, lyricist and librettist. My work as a director and/or playwright has been seen on stages in New York, New Jersey, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Chicago, Florida, California, and Utah. I teach acting, voice for actors, Shakespeare, directing, clowning, and voiceover. I have taught or directed students from ages 16 to 60. I also coach actors for auditions.

I've grown up playing tennis since age 4, climbed up to a top 50 player in texas U16, reached a 10 UTR and played line 1 for my Varsity HS team. Went to Ucla and began coaching over 15 kids. I coached kids of all skill levels, but my style of coaching mainly benefits kids who are looking to hit a lot of balls and play points/sets. Obviously I tailor my coaching to all skill levels, but those looking for more intense hitting will benefit more.
