An award-winning musical artist performing worldwide and recording solo and in collaboration, Dr. Diana Rowan’s playing and compositions have unusual power and beauty. She integrates global musical traditions with fluency and reverence. Born in Ireland and raised the child of an Irish diplomat, Diana has traveled, lived and performed on six continents. As a natural outgrowth of this inspiration, Diana's music interweaves global music, art, spirituality and mythology. She can be heard on many CDs and soundtracks, including her solo albums Panta Rhei, The Bright Knowledge, and the forthcoming As Above, So Below. Diana’s 30+ year performance career spans venues such as the World Harp Congress in Australia, Washington DC's Smithsonian, the US Embassy in Vietnam, and Eastern European cathedrals. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, Diana holds a PhD in Music Theory (world harp composition techniques), plus an MM in Piano Performance (classical.) Diana presents rave-review workshops and lectures worldwide and runs Bright Knowledge Performance Academy, an online college for dedicated musicians. Diana's teaching has brought life-changing results for many musicians, particularly in making breakthroughs manifesting high-level creativity and overcoming blocks like performance anxiety. Her first book, "World Harp Techniques," was released Fall 2015. Not surprisingly, Diana understands the healing power of music and plays often in hospitals and healing centers via her company Sage Harpists http://sageharpists.com. She also performs regularly via Bread & Roses for audiences who don't normally experience live music, from preschools to prisons. www.dianarowan.com
