After studying with a visiting professor from the Shanghai Conservatory of Music, at the age of eighteen she decided to leave Inner Mongolia to study at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music. It was an bold decision - for at that time she did not speak a single word of Mandarin Chinese and her family knew very little of Shanghai, let alone its location.
With this move, Urna’s life and career took a dramatic turn. She decided to follow her voice, leaving the dulcimer and concentrating on the multitude of tone colours of her voice which has a range of four octaves. At the same time she tried to go further than the common methods of musical training.
Of her music she says: “ I interpret my songs in all my energies with the variety of life experiences; therefore, I feel rebirth after each performance.”
While being rooted in the traditional music of her Mongolian homeland, Urna continues to take her music in new directions. Her latest compositions emphasize free, brushstroke-like improvisations, which have been inspired by her recent experiences with other cultures and musicians and her life outside of Mongolia. With this constant yearning to take her music beyond convention, Urna has performed with many internationally-renown musicians, including the Hungarian violinist Zoltan Lantos
