Born in Hong Kong in 2001, Natasha Theil is half Scottish and half German but grew up in Shanghai, China.

In 2016 she also sang in Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana at the Poly Grand Theatre in Shanghai, conducted by Christian von Gehren. These and many other experiences confirmed that singing was her greatest passion and her future. 

Natasha has finished her undergraduate in vocal studies and opera at the Royal Northern College of Music with Principal Study Tutors Eiddwen Harrhy and Deborah Rees. Whilst at the RNCM she performed in master classes with mezzo-soprano Ann Murray and soprano Susan Bullock as well as other renowned singers. She has moved on to continue her studies in Weimar, where she has had the pleasure of working with coveted Professor of Lieder Richard Stokes. She is currently singing a wide range of repertoire from composers such as Handel, Mozart, Strauss, Britten, Schumann, Weber and Berg. Her favorite languages to sing in are German, Chinese, and Italian because of her German heritage, the fact that she grew up in China, and her profound interest in the Italian language and culture.

Natasha wants to develop further with engagements singing solo roles in oratorios and operas.
