Project Infinity

The topic of her research is the problem of circular breathing in performing wind instruments. As a specialist in this field she inspires many contemporaries composers who they dedicated numerous works to her. Also she is the author — together with her teacher, prof. Barbara of the book Infinity. Circular Breathing and the course book Infinity with exercises and pieces to practice this technique, released in December 2020. The CD Infinity - with pieces requiring the use of circular breathing - was recorded with the Belgian pianist Emmy Wils at the Krzysztof Penderecki European Music Center in Lusławice and released by DUX in September 2019.

Natalia gave many lectures about circular breathing around the world (i.e. The National Flute Association 2023 in Phoenix,, the Festival Universitario de Flauta Transversa in México 2019, the Alexander Arutiunian International Wind Festival 2019)
