About

Applauded by Performance Today for her “pulsatingly beautiful and moving” music, Natalie Dietterich is a composer, violinist, and vocalist from Harleysville, PA. Her unconventional work with choir and large ensembles have earned her accolades such as the Leo Kaplan Prize (ASCAP), [‘tactus] Prize, and the First Music Commission along with fellowships at the Cabrillo festival and the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra Cone Institute. 

Dietterich has worked with nationally and internationally accredited ensembles such as the Luxembourg and Brussels Philharmonics, the Seattle, Albany, and Shanghai Symphonies, WildUp and Ensemble Modern. Her collaborations have resulted in projects such as a short film released on PBS’s independent film series POV Shorts, an electro-acoustic guitar concerto featuring JIJI with a premiere in Carnegie Hall, and an open-form live installation shown in museums throughout Europe including the Kunst imTunnel (KIT) in Düsseldorf and Museum Dhondt-Dhaenens in Ghent, and as a permanent audio installation at Kunsthal, Ghent since 2021.
