" she (sop. Tessa Miller) revelled in the wistfully neo-romantic atmosphere of contemporary Australian composer Natalie Williams´ rather beautiful Perpetual Harmony.."
Rodney Smith, Advertiser, October 31st 2007.

ASO programme notes, Symphony Under the Stars, Saturday Feb 16th 2002.

Tim Lloyd, Advertiser, Friday Feb 15th 2002 (pg 32)
" five quite substantial movements of Natalie Williams´ String Quartet no 1. The music's central, lyrical slow movement made a distinct impression"
Raymond Chapman-Smith, Advertiser, April 5th, 2002 (pg 61)
"Young South Australian composer Natalie Williams's Sonic Boom, performed in March, plays on the idea of breaking the sound barrier and aims to showcase the orchestra as much as possible. It succeeds, by keeping form & ideas succinct while allowing for a sustained buildup of energy. After a single drumbeat and bristling brass chords and woodwind combine in a sweep of rising grandeur, all finished off by a spectacular, powder keg ending."
Graham Strahle, The Australian, Monday July 3rd 2001 (pg 15)
"It was interesting to notice how the Festival Theatre audience took readily to Natalie Williams' fanfare Sonic Boom"
Graham Strahle, Adelaide Review, April 2001
"A major new choral work with a South Australian theme will be premiered under the stars - and inspiring circumstances - in the state's Mid North this week. Towards Unlit Skies feature music by prominent young SA composer Natalie Williams and a libretto by well-known SA writer and composer Pat Rix."
Louise Nunn, Advertiser, March 17 2003 (pg 70)
"the heart of the program [Bundaleer Forest Weekend Evening Concert] was truly ambitious, a commission from composer Natalie Williams for choir, soloists and orchestra, Towards Unlit Skies. This brought together the composer with librettist Pat Rix, poet Kim Mann and the local community in an exploration of the local environment and its history as changes were wrought upon by settlement and forestry. It was a thought-provoking work, with a rich tapestry of orchestral colour"
Stephen Whittington, Advertiser, March 24 2003
"In Sonic Boom, the first of a series of Fanfares by young Australian composers, Natalie Williams whipped up a celebratory storm, symbolically breaking the sound barrier between silence and music."
Elisabeth Silsbury, Advertiser, Monday March 19th 2001 (pg 6)
"in the expressive sweep of song cycles Natalie Williams' lovely, fragrant Dream Pedlary was sung with communicative relish by Keith Hempton."
Graham Strahle, City messenger, June 21st 2001 (pg 9)
"Successful was Natalie Williams' Fanfare Sonic Boom, a smartly conceived concert opener that bristles and surges along with a well-honed main theme of cinematic proportions. Williams is a highly talented composer deserving of close attention."
Graham Strahle, Adelaide Review, March 2002 (pg25)
"Natalie Williams' sparkling Fanfare Sonic Boom launched the evening on a high energy level."
Stephen Whittington, Advertiser, February 18th, 2002 (pg 69)
