Yulia recorded "Teehaya Noch" (Silent Night) for the Special Edition of her debut album "Into the West" by SONY BMG NZ in 2004 produced by Carl Doy.

Here Yulia contemplates those who struggle at Christmas to experience love and self love and who have challenging circumstances.

Each candle represents the souls and hearts of the people whom Yulia seeks to encourage and uplift with her voice.

We hope that those who seek encouragement will find it here in Teehaya Noch.

"You must start with legends to create legends. Artists that David has worked with or signed have sold in excess of $1 billion dollars. As a legendary producer he has earned over 75 international gold and platinum albums and his work has yielded multiple Grammys and an Academy Award nomination. Kershenbaums career spans over two and one-half decades."

"He has had senior executive roles in three major record companies. At A&M Records he was the creative force and man in charge which during his tenure yielded many superstar artists including Janet Jackson, Joe Jackson, Peter Frampton, Bryan Adams, The Police, Squeeze, Cat Stevens, and Supertramp to name a few. It was one of the most successful periods of A&Ms history."

"Kershenbaum is best known for his artistic productions of unknown artists building many of them into superstars. He is a song man with a great talent for new artist development and music presentation. Many artists who have worked with him say that he knows exactly how to focus an artist and bring the best out of their work."

DAVID FOSTER

NB: At the time of this video diary, Yulia also has a presentation being put to David Foster by a USA based agent. She also hopes to be able to work with David Foster who discovered and developed Josh Groban. One of NZ's most highly awarded contemporary female vocalists, Yulia has a golden voice and a very good chance of being similarly "discovered".

POWER OF INTERNET!!!!

All of these industry contacts were developed using www.linkedin.com, www.plaxo.com and www.ecademy.com through networking and self promotion using a broadband internet connection with no Government or agency support.

DOCUMENTARY / FILM

No major record label was involved. Just two really hard working and passionate kiwi's. Glyn & Yulia, a lap top computer and an internet connection.

Glyn & Yulia are filming each step of the musical journey and plan to record a documentary film of the recording of the single with David Kershenbaum.

NZ ELECTIONS

Yulia strongly advocates the NZ National Party and John Key initiatives to fund NZ broadband development. Oikos Music is currently canvassing New Zealand Trade and Enterprise to bring USA Music Producers and Music Publishers / Licensors to NZ to upskill kiwi's on how to develop music specifically for export and to fit formats for tv, film and radio.

MUSIC EXPORT

Oikos music (Yulia's management & publishing company) also has relationships with www.musicsupervisor.com and www.terravistamedia.com and is focussed on licensing leading NZ music to USA, UK and EUROPEAN tv, film and radio markets.

Yulia sings "The Prayer" at her wedding

2008-10-29T18:24:04.831Z

On February 10th, 2008 Yulia Townsend married her manager Glyn MacLean in the magnificent historical "Great Hall" at the Christchurch Arts Centre in a fairy tale wedding.

CHRISTCHURCH ARTS CENTRE
www.artscentre.org.nz

Yulia decided to invite fans to her wedding.

Prime time television documentary channel Television New Zealand's CLOSE UP promoted a special email address for viewer submissions to attend the wedding, along with stories about how Yulia's music had impacted on their lives.

Yulia read through hundreds of submissions from fans all over New Zealand. 168 were finally selected including fans who had suffered life challenges, personal losses and the death of loved ones.

Yulia sang "The Prayer" as a celebration of her marriage union and to send a message of hope to everyone who had suffered or struggled, that they might through prayer, find the hope and faith to overcome.

Possibly one of the most humbling experiences of the wedding was when artist Glenis Thomas presented a beautiful hand made, ornate heirloom piece, a faberge style egg which contained the wedding rings. Yulia keeps this by her bed side and places her wedding an engagement rings in the egg each night as a special keepsake.

A humble pensioner and widower, Glenis used her air points to attend the wedding and put her last savings into the making of the heirloom piece that she hand made for Yulia. This moved Yulia and Glyn to tears.

Fans and sponsors went out of there way to contribute to make this a fairytale wedding. A special link will be placed on www.yulia.co.nz recognising the 168 fans and the sponsors who attended.

Yulia responded to the gift of Glenis Thomas by buying a special Egg Art egg for handcrafted for Glyn's mother and her own mother Galina for mothers day 2008, "Paying it forward".

The relationship with Glenis has blossomed.

Yulia & Glenis are currently working on an exclusive range of handcrafted Yulia branded ornate heirloom "Egg Art" to be made available through www.yulia.co.nz
