Yulia - Best Wishes (2023)

The roots of Yulia Petrova’s extraordinary & exquisite technique as an artist & composer today, can all be traced back to the earliest days of her childhood, when she first discovered her connection to music by learning how to play piano at the age of five. Though extremely young at the time, it was instantly clear she had a genuinely special gift and exceptional talent for her age, and it was only three years later before Yulia began to compose her very first songs, establishing her passions & pathway forward in life.

With a natural skillset that was undeniably unique, Yulia attended a dedicated music conservatory in the city of Novosibirsk in Russia, and continued to educate herself both inside & outside of school. While she studied Classical music during her teenage years, she also expanded her palette in listening outside of school-hours, soon learning that her interests included Rock, Blues, Fusion, and eventually, even Jazz. Yulia’s love for multiple styles of music would come in more than handy – before she was even finished with her studies, she was already writing original songs for advertising companies and teaching her own students. Her diverse musical taste pointed towards her destiny, and helped shape her future to follow.

Embracing versatility and the creative freedom inherent in truly expressive music, Yulia went on to excel through her years studying theory & composition at the conservatory, while also testing out her talents in live performances in local bands, and supporting other artists with her passionate instrumentation. With an intense understanding of how to use music as our universal language, and how to connect the hearts & minds of listeners through her God-given talents – Yulia went from working & teaching from a young age, to dreaming about taking that all-important next step, and recording her own original songs.

In 2016, Yulia’s stunning debut single “Storm” featuring the legendary talents of guitarist Sergey Ignatov verifiably proved she was a sonic force to be reckoned with, and immediately solidified her place in the music-scene. An authentic tour-de-force – since its release, “Storm” has gone on to receive wild critical acclaim, winning the top honors at the Los Angeles Film Awards, the Lonely Seal International Film & Music Festival, the American Songwriting Awards, and the Hollywood Songwriting contest – all in 2019!

Yulia would go on to continue to impress listeners all around the globe & take home even more awards as she emerged as an artist with a bright future ahead. In fact, she’s never released a song that hasn’t been selected for anything less than the top spot in competitions to-date, with 2019’s “Where There Is Nothing To Say” & her collaboration with Joel McCray on “King Of Kings,” and 2020’s “For You” featuring Grammy Award-winning producer Madukwu Chinwah, all being recognized in various ways throughout the international scene with recognition for best performances, best songwriter, and best original songs.

Truly blessed to be able to share her talents with each & every one of you listening all around the world, Yulia has achieved another milestones in 2021, with her single “The Love Of God” winning Best original music/song at the Nieves International Christian Film Festival and with her song "For You" winning another award Best song at Barcelona International Film Festival-2021. In addition to the release of another new song to add to her catalog and growing legacy, she’s also put out the beautifully jazzy, vibrantly colorful & remarkably catchy new singles “Perfect Love”, “Why did it come our that way?”, “Goodbye”, “Morning Melody”, “Sign of love”, “Under the dancing moon, under the singing sky” online for all to enjoy, as Yulia puts the finishing touches & details into her highly-anticipated upcoming debut full-length Jazz album called Best Wishes.

The year 2022 has began for Yulia with two silver medals at an international competition Global Music Awards for the song “The Love of God” in categories: composition and impact on the listener: motivational/inspiring.

With a second album to follow, designed specifically with inspirational music to be played live in churches, Prayers and Dreams will bring Yulia’s songs straight to the people where they belong and help fulfill her destiny of bringing light, love, and inspiration to one & all, through music.

Her most recent single titled “Keep The Faith” is making a global impact all over major radio stations in the US and all across the world. Her Jazz prowess continues to be remarkably noticeable to all Jazz music lovers and legends that have run the same race.
