Nat Bartsch is a genre-bending pianist and composer blending neoclassical and jazz to create lyrical, beautiful music. In 2017, Nat became a mother and created a suite of lullabies, inspired by Max Richter’s Sleep album and the children’s genre-crossing of the Teeny Tiny Stevies. Influenced by music therapy research and her son’s stages of development, Nat composed a series of pieces designed to encourage babies to sleep. Equally importantly, the music is intended to be soothing for adults—for if the whole family is calm, the baby is more likely to be calm. The resulting album, Forever, and No Time At All, was released on ABC Classic in 2018, with an ARIA-nominated jazz re-interpretation, Forever More, released in 2020. These albums are enjoyed by parents and non-parents alike and has provided to soundtrack the first years of many babies’ lives, from their time in utero, to the delivery room, to their evening sleep routine. 

Nat Bartsch: Lullabies is supported by On the Road Again, a Victorian Government initiative to bring live music back across the state.
