Thank you so much Natalie! I was a Melbourne bike messenger for 20 years , and many, many deliveries got delayed by her mesmerising playing. I know she touched all of us. I am so glad to see that she remains one of the most special, treasured people in Melbourne , and has a place to live in peace.
Wow, I bawled and bawled when Natalie started playing, I don't know why I just couldn't help it. Why was this beautiful angel not recognised earlier. What an amazing legacy she has left her son, I could see her playing at Sydney Opera House with Lang Lang she is so good. I hope she gets recognised for her dedication to her craft in some way, she really deserves it.
One of the greatest composers and piano players of the modern age, in my humble opinion... And all for the sake of loving her art form. Not for fame, not for money, just for the people. Truly inspiring.
I remember her when she was living on the streets of Hobart, that most beautiful soul I have ever met. I remember Natalie telling me about how free she felt living on the streets and her love for music. This was in the early 90's. Im glad that she is still alive and well and playing in Melbourne, I wish I saw her there when I was there in '19 because I had never heard her play live. This is a woman I admire greatly.
Matthew, thank you for sharing your mother's gift. Today is my birthday, and your mother's music popped up on my feed. I was so mesmerized by the piece, and had to hear more of the hauntingly beautiful music, and the astoundingly talented artist! Please thank your mom for the best gift ever ❤️
Hey Matthew, it’s so great you have decided to put up videos of your mom playing the piano. She’s truly one of the rare kind of people who were born to be artists, the way she plays the piano is breathtaking. A raw, beautiful soul I’m so glad I got to know today.
This story never grow old! When she puts her fingers on that piano, it took us to the skies and the heavens really! I thank her for her talent and her story.
The world.. nay, the UNIVERSE, needs Natalie's music. As good as it gets.. she will go down in history as one of the best musicians, and I have a feeling people will be listening to her 200 years from now
She's Good Will Hunting ... a genius who purely loves her art, has no craving for money or praise or fame at all ... how often do we get a human heart so pure ? Rarely ..
88feji oh there simply has to be a book written and film made about this astonishing creative force and entity , I’ve never seen anything like it and I watch music and listen to music every day ! 🙏♥️
"Nothing has changed. Just rearranged" "That's what happens with life. You think its gone, but its only just changed" What powerful words! A woman who has experienced so many different aspects of life, and is able to express her experience and passion with such beauty and freedom, not only with words but through her music. Thank you Matthew for documenting your mother's journey.
right...technical perfection is nothing against emotional perfection. We can hear the difference. And this is the proof, that we hear with our soul, not wth our ears.
I thought I was the only one! Natalie's notes strike my hearts chords,and plays an entire movie of my life,merely by composing music on the spot. Glad I am not the only one,Gorigori.
Невероятная женщина, она волшебница!!! Не взирая на сложную жизнь, она улыбается, играет на пиано, радуется жизни!!! Желаю крепкого здоровья, любящих людей вокруг и долгих лет жизни!!! Спасибо автору за помощь этой святой женщине, спасибо за то что показал её нам всем!!!! 🙏🙏🙏

A true angel. I really hope Natalie’s life is put into film. Something so beautiful and extraordinary for generations & generations to see & appreciate. Natalie, thank you soo much for sharing your precious gift to the world 🙏🏽
Just goes to prove yet again ,,,, NEVER judge a book by its cover ! Read the whole story first ... what an amazing woman & WHY hasn’t someone made a movie out of her life ???? Now THAT would be worth watching. ...
I had not watched this until this morning how amazing what a life the difficulties she's faced and this talent ...what a beautiful soul... how she describes changes dark changes and freedom...how she wants to share her gift...So thankful someone helped her we can learn so much from our elders....praying she stays safe during our pandemic...God bless her and you thank you for sharing !

У меня слезы сами капали из глаз )))) Волшебная Женщина ! бесподобно, восхитительно, изумительно, несравненно, очаровательно, прекрасно, священно !!! Дай Бог Вам Здоровья Наталья !
Она выдающийся музыкант! Я люблю классическую музыку и чень много слышала разных музыкантов. Некоторые технически совершенны в своей игре, кто-то играет так, что музыка будто из сердца льется, но Натали... Это просто бесподобно! Я вообще обо всём на свете забываю, когда слышу её игру! Как будто открывается другой мир! Браво Натали!
"It's something that is nothing to do with money." How true, and how many of us can say that about anything in our life, any aspect? I play with paint, and I feel like a 1 year old listening to her music. My art isn't art. Her art is. She's beautiful inside and out. Asking nothing in return. I am completely touched and humbled by her words and her music.
I say this, since 1981.... Chant Hare Krsna, & your life will be sublime. Everyday this mantra delivers success and has nothing to do with money. "Man" means mind, "tra" means deliver. Try it there is no loss, but all gain Hare Krishna 🌺 Hare Krishna 🌺 Krishna Krishna 🌺 Hare Hare 🌺 Hare Rāma 🌺 Hare Rāma🌺 Rāma Rāma 🌺 Hare Hare🌺
Jody Cleaver. But then money would come into it, and schedules and paperwork and meetings. Just let her do what she wants, without others controlling her. She’s free, in the purest sense of the word.
Kerwin Lee I conducted a funeral today for a lady. I said to her husband that I had seen a quote. That said ‘nothing has changed, but rearranged ‘ Thank you darling, it meant so much to him, and to me x
@@TheDragonA64 2:38 - Она говорит "Мама, я хочу учить музыку". 2:46 - говорит "Неможемо" что и по русски звучит как "не можем" (примечание, видать имелось в виду отказ родителей ехать Натали учиться в Англию из за отсутствия денег на дорогу и проживание). Привет из России! 2:38 - She says, "Mom, I want to learn music." 2:46 - he says “It’s not possible” that in Russian it sounds like “we can’t” (note, I meant the refusal of parents to go to Natalie to study in England due to lack of money for travel and accommodation). Hello from Russia!
Мои слёзы, от наполненности красотою души этой женщины! Спасибо Всевышнему что позволил мне её слышать и видеть! Спасибо! Многие лета этому прекрасному человеку!
Такие люди помогают жить другим. Глядя на то как они не сдаются преодолевая жизненные невзгоды, неся людям чистое доброе светлое, человек становится более сильным, потому что быть слабым просто стыдно. Желаю Натали здоровья, сил и долгие лета нести свою музыку !!!
The poor is a population, a society, its own race, ethnicity and culture. A Social level, that could be considered as its own race of poor, rich or accepted or not. A crowd that does have its own integrity, humanity. Society is a bias system, and she is living proof. I have accepted my life w/ all my talents, it is not about where I want to be in society, but where society need me. And she has given to society and defined its very being.
I am so sad for her. Imagine her life if she was discovered 60 years ago. She would be world famous. I see this diamond that is just now being discovered and is so late in her life. /tears The things you can find on RU-vid. Amazing.
What Ive learned is that age and lack of notoriety sometimes makes these people more magnificent. If she was discovered 60 years ago she'd just be another big musician with a short career in the spotlight, like Yani or Keiko Matsui etc. But she looks like she lived a good complete life. Her doing this now for street cred serves her even better. It is giving her "end of life" purpose that further fulfills her already long history. It give her a reason to wake up each day. It is also a testament to the arts of the past. To the idea of aged geniuses like Mozart. Seeing her makes you remember that talent is forever if maintained. I think her discovery as an old woman is absolutely perfect for her and for us. I want to be like her in m40 years. Playing my piano on the street just because. Making people wonder what song im playing, how I learned it, what my life was like. She is my end of life goal. …… of course id be playing music from Chrono Trigger, Kingdom Hearts, and Final Fantasy :D
My dear friend Matthew, I am always deeply touched by Natalie. Your mother is so wonderful, her music touches the heart and soul. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving us this wonderful documentary ... Hug from Switzerland, your friend Hans-Peter
I love her rendentions, and compositions. I enjoy so much to hear her play the piano, and as far as I am concerned, in my lifetime, she will always be my favorite classical pianist! Miss Natalie is awesomely gifted. Thank you Mathew for sharing.
Жаль, не понимаю о чем говорят ... одно скажу: пусть Бог хранит Наталию!!!! Такой талант, восхищаюсь!!!! Thank you so mach!!! Представляю, какая она красивая в молодости была, она и сейчас красивая.
THIS,,,,,,,is what a REAL Angel is..God has sent her around where she can play for the people, to hear what God hears...Yessssss,,she IS Gods Personal Angel indeed...I KNOW.
You don't understand poetry. It's not just quotable quotes, just like she doesn't just do scales. And if she was a poet, she'd be one. So many people can't 'hear' poetry as a separate thing from music. That's why they gave the Nobel literature prize to Bob Dylan. His music might be good but his lyrics are very average, and it aint a music prize.
Sounds like my life- child dies, my house burned, homeless for a year- I don’t play the piano however-she knows who God is... so do I- that is all that matters.
@@gailbruce123 sometimes the ones that see God in all the beautiful acts of God sometimes their silence is more real than the ones that preach on corners and scream all over for attention sometimes the ones that don't speak of God on the outside live God on the inside
R.I.P. beautiful soul.I have just watched this in my home in Blairgowrie Scotland.I used to see you every week day in Flinders Street Station, while on my way to my job as a housemaster's nanny at Melbourne grammar, in the 80's.I lived in Melbourne in 70's-- 1996.Been home in Scotland since then.Wonderful to discover Matthew's channel and thus your amazing gift, and philosophy of Life.Thankyou both.I used to watch you playing in david Jones too,when you had beautiful dark hair.God Bless you,and yours.
Алла, не могли бы Вы перевести на русский хотя бы кратко ее историю.? Пожалуйста... Насколько я понимаю , ее музыка чистая импровизация. Потрясающе, конечно. Не знающие английского заранее Вам благодарны.
О Боже,какой талант,какая душа.Это человек космоса.Какое чистое интелигентное лицо.Музыка божественная,трогает до слез.Метью,Вы молодец,что познакомил весь мир с этим чудом.Ваша мама одорена божественным талантом.Царствие небесное Натали.
I would love to shake her hand and thank her for allowing us to be part of her amazing journey and the positivity in her outlook on life just let's you kno never give up and you'll achieve anything u imagine. She's a gift all by herself. Then you add a piano and she is just genius. I'm truly amazed. Thank you
Wow Natalie, This is the first comment I have ever made on RU-vid, and that's because YOU are AMAZING! To say I am touched by your passion, story, skill, style and determination, along with how your music makes me feel inside my soul, and the fantastic music you play, is an incredible. I also admire your focus and determination, as my parents were both music teachers, I almost see my Mother and Father in you. I FEEL BLESSED BY YOU! Thankyou, Take Care and keep smiling x
А ведь она была красавицей!!! Какое благородное, аристократическое лицо. Ее душа переполнена красотой. Как легко она ею делится, многие о такой музыке и не знают, другим не до того, третьи позабыли. Я в восторге от этой женщины!!! Браво!!!
this is so moving!! i wept thru the whole thing it is pure joy coming from her hands so beautiful there are no words her journey, her strength and her way of viewing the world this is pure grace thank you so so much
Natalie, I send you a huge hug from hometown of your parents Kastel Sucurac. I enjoyed your music a lot, expecially "You asked for me". Thank you for that. I am very proud that this kind of musician exists. 🤗❤
