SPRING 2025

Dear Friends,

A few years ago I began the slow – but steady – project of getting 4 decades of music available in digital forms.  This has been wonderfully fun – going back to compositions written decades ago. Some pieces didn’t make the cut, and some pieces I’ve rewritten (sometimes quite significantly).  You can check out my new digital offerings on this website under “SHOP”/Books.

My 2 newest books are for beginning and early harp students: First Pieces for the Harp and Early Pieces for the Harp.  These books are very dear to my heart and represent over 3 decades of teaching. Both books include my original compositions written for my students, as well as arrangements of world music, classical, holiday music, and more. You can read more about these two books by again going to the Books Section under SHOP.

Afghan Press is my primary publisher. AP not only offers my music in pdf form, but they also offer print-on-demand options. AP allows me to hold onto the copyrights for all my music; this enables me to be able to sell my music myself/on this website, and also through a number of great music publishers (Sylvia Woods, Harp Column Music, Lyon and Healy).

Also, I am very excited to announce that I have just launched my own You Tube channel: www.youtube.com/@dianastork54  This is another slow but steady project. As of now (late February 2025) I’ve nine  youtube videos to hear and view. I’m thrilled to have collaborated with my talented niece, Linnea Snyderman on two of these: Heatbeats and Circle of Friends. Please check them out; and check out Linnea’s beautiful underwater modelling at: underwaterlinnea.com

If you are so inspired, please take a moment to give them a “Like”, and if you want to hear more, please hit “Subscribe”. Those likes and subscribes really help a channel to grow, and you will be inviting new listeners into the world of the harp. I also welcome you to leave comments if you feel inspired to do so; I very much look forward to reading them!

I’ve a few performances coming up this Spring. You can find out about these under EVENTS.

With all the chaos happening in the world right now, a retreat into the gentle, but powerful world of harps might be just what you need.

I always welcome your comments and questions.

To a World in Harmony!
