Diana Rowan

Diana Rowan's unique upbringing gives her music a cosmopolitan, timeless flavor. Born in Ireland, Diana has lived in Washington, D.C., Belgium, and the Mediterranean island of Cyprus. Diana’s classical training (MM Piano Performance, under Tchaikovsky Piano Competition prize-winner Roy Bogas, intensive ongoing studies with Alice Giles, 1st prize-winner of the Israel International Harp Contest) intersects with her love for Balkan, Eastern European, Sephardic and Middle Eastern music to create compelling solo and ensemble performances. Currently collaborating with her mentor Bon Singer's vocal ensemble Ya Elah, vocal virtuosa Lily Storm, and rising early music stars San Francisco Renaissance Voices, Diana can also be heard on several CDs including her debut solo album Panta Rhei. Diana’s second album, The Bright Knowledge, will be released 2008.
