Born in St. Petersburg (formerly Leningrad), Julia graduated from the Rimski-Korsakov Academy of Music and in 1988 she won the national harp competition in Moscow. She was harpist with the Philharmonic Orchestra of Leningrad and appeared as a soloist throughout Russia. Since moving to Israel, Julia has become a central figure on Israel's concert scene and appears regularly as soloist and in many chamber music ensembles. Since 2003 she is the Principal Harpist of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra.
Julia's debut single, Six Wings Of Bliss, is part of the acclaimed singles series Allergy To Consciousness. Based on Geoff Smith's composition to Emily Brontë's words, it features two versions - one of them is with soprano singer Hila Baggio.

Julia's solo album, "Dusk", features eight "Close up" versions of pieces by Philip Glass, J. S. Bach, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Nicolas Flagello, Sergey Prokofiev, Harold Budd & Brian Eno.
