There is nothing more powerful, than the voice of Nature, while we merge with her breathing- our voice is glitter in colouring and grows in range... There is no borders of expressing the feelings in different ways and styles...Free spirit makes the capacity of the voice unlimited...Singing soul of the Native NordEast... (Natalia Usmanova From THE WAY OF MY DREAM INCARNATION)
Music composition Timeless- From classical jazz to the own vision of swing and poetry in a new turn
---------------------
...She has an incredibly big and beautiful voice, and an unusual sensual and smooth stage act.

Certainly the effect of her powerful voice in the Concert Hall is startling.The audience at her first recital there was held spellbound by a performanse which managed to mingle a distinct Slavic warmth and honesty a rare vocal power.....
