What people are saying about Diana Stork... "Diana's ability to sense the right piece for the right moment, and play with utter respect and attunement with the participants is remarkable. Many times she has been called an "Angel".                                                       -Judith Tripp Director, Women's Dream Quest,                                                                 Grace Cathedral, San Francisco "In the global harp world there are only a handful of people who have worked greatly to bring our instrument into the realm of a wider public consciousness.  Diana Stork is one of those rare pearls. Hr devotion to harp music, her fluid playing and organizational skills are superb.'                                                                   --Rudiger Oppermann                                                                                  President, German Harp Society

"My most vivid memory of the 1986 ISFHC National Convention is not of the gala concerts but rather of an informal session where I first heard Diana Stork and her captivating improvisations.   I've since witnessed Diana's innate sensitivity and uncanny ability to find the proper niche for her harp in diverse collaborations with Indian, Latin, Celtic, World, modern Dance and Early Music; and she continues to be found at the harp world's "cutting edge". Through her roles as artistic director of the highly successful "Festival of Harps" concert series and "Harpestry" recordings, Diana's supreme integrity has proven that quality does not have to be compromised in order to achieve commercial success. I am in complete admiration of the stunning ensemble performance of Diana's harp students in the "Bay Area Youth Harp Ensemble" at a recent Festival of Harps concert.  Children of all ages played at a level suitable for Carnegie Hall-and it was obvious that each and everyone loved what they were doing!  Diana has a profound ability to inspire her students."                                                                                                           -  Ann Heymann                                                                                                               Harpist   "It is in her nature to be inspirational to others and to make things happen.  Wherever she goes she makes powerful connections with people. Besides being a sublime harpist with a style and repertoire all her own, and a producer and director of recordings and concerts with an unerring ear and musical taste, Diana has been a driving force in the harp community.  I believe that, as a teacher of numerous young harpists, and as founder and director of the Festival of Harps, she has been a major factor in the recent flowering of harp music in the San Francisco Bay Area.                                                                                                                                                                                    - Mitch Landy                                                                                                             SF Bay Area Harpist Diana is a very enthusiastic harp teacher! Her energy not only helps you learn, but also inspires you to reach for higher goals.                                                                                                           - Liza Rose-Age 12, Student "Studying with Diana, I find that I am not only becoming a more creative and sensitive musician, but that I am falling deeper and deeper in love with the harp!  She is a gifted and intuitive teacher, who brings together a skillful blend of harp technique, body wisdom, and the creative and spiritual dimensions of fully embodied musicianship.  I leave our lessons feeling inspired and very grateful."                                                                                                        -Karen Berg-Smith, Student "Diana does a fantastic job of imparting the sense to her students that music is "alive" and a part of them, not just something to be copied.  She has the knack of gently expanding the musical limits of her students in a very suppportive way."                                                                                                        -Julie Rogers, Parent "Diana Stork is an amazing teacher who has exposed me to many styles of music, including multicultural music.  Due to her hard work, I have been part of several harp ensembles that have taught me much about harp music and working with others.  Her commitment to her students and the harp, has further helped me flourish as a musician, and supported me to become the composer I am today."                                                                                                       -Amelia Romano, Student
