Patron opera singer, Natasha Marsh
Natasha made her critically acclaimed debut with Grange Park Opera singing Jacqueline in Fortunio by André Messager; she returned to sing the role of Governess in Britten’s The Turn of the Screw. “The Governess was a real highlight in my career. I lived and breathed the part. Even when I got in my car to go home after the performance I had to make a great effort to switch from the Governess back to Natasha Marsh.” Natasha has gone on to build credible and impressive CV in the opera world.
“There’s so much beauty and power in opera,” Natasha says. “I love every minute of it – from the first day of rehearsals you’re exploring details of the character, developing the role in your voice, getting to know your character. The costumes are so important too – I find shoes are vital to the character, the way you wear them and therefore the way you walk in them. It’s easier to portray a role once I’ve got the shoes on; I get so involved in the role, the build-up to opening night is often a rollercoaster ride and it’s important to pace myself so I’m not exhausted for the premiere!”
Natasha tours the UK and Europe extensively, performing live at events such as the Carling Cup final at Wembley Stadium, where she sang the National Anthem. She has appeared as special a guest for artists including Il Divo, Jose Carreras, Russell Watson, and most recently mesmerized audiences all over the country with Paul Potts.
