Yulia sings the NZ National Anthem at the Netball International Series New Zealand VS Australia game. NZ won 59 - 40!

One of the reasons this performance is so significant is that Yulia came to NZ as Russian immigrant who could barely speak English. Yulia has gone on to become a NZ citizen with a mastery of songs in 10 languages. Yulia is very proud to represent NZ and took immense pride in singing the NZ National Anthem, both as a Christian who lives the meaning of the song and as a person who has come to NZ to make a better life.

Very special moment.

LETTER OF THANKS FROM NETBALL NEW ZEALAND:

Dear Yulia and Glyn,

A belated thank you for being a part of the 2010 New World International Netball Series.

Your beautiful anthem really set the stage for a great event -- and clearly the girls responded to it with their win!
The feedback we have received has been fantastic, with the audience (and our VIPs) commenting on how much they enjoyed your vocals and huge passion for the Ferns and New Zealand.

The CDs have been so appreciated by the staff and Ferns alike and several of them have e-mailed me back specifically to offer their thanks to you for this gesture. It's been playing in the office on several occasions!

We all look forward to working with you again in the future.

Regards,
Jacqui

  • @AedeusLeonora Yes. I love Tarja Turunen also. :)

  • New Zealand's cultural icons - the Silver Ferns. They are helped along by two "new" Kiwis - Yulia and Irene. We Kiwis love our new Kiwis best all all. Aren't they just lovely. :)

  • The cream of new Zealand womanhood.What a magnificent contribution Yulia.

  • Wow, I never realized how long your hair is, you look so pretty! :) And your voice is so powerful, sometimes I think you sound a bit like Tarja Turunen. But you still have your own unique sound... :)
