Biography
Diana Stonhushenko was born on February 26, 2008 in the city of
Konstantinovka, Ukraine. Larisa Bondarenko, a teacher, studies at the
Konstantinovsky School of Arts.
The main stimulus of the girl is the music itself. She loves to play both at
home and for the public, and gets a lot of pleasure from it. Diana loves the living sound of nature — she is for her both inspiration and new figurative impressions, which the girl is happy to embody in playing the piano.
Listening to a young singer is interesting for both children and experienced
musicians, because she herself is involved in the emotional process and attracts the listener to him, establishing his own personal contact. Music in her performance becomes like poetry. Probably that is why she is a winner of many competitions.
She performed in the philharmonic halls of Kyiv, Milan, Brussels, Lviv, Odessa, Kharkiv, Sumy, Zhytomyr, Dnipro, Zaporizhia, Toretsk, Bakhmut, Mariupol.
In December 2018, Diana was invited to the Mariinsky Palace for a meeting
of the President of Ukraine with the talented youth of Ukraine, where she was awarded a presidential award.
Diana plays a lot and selflessly, embodies her own experiences in musical
images, empathizes and supports her friends at concerts and competitions. Listens to many modern artists from young musicians to world stars. She is looking forward to the opportunity to communicate and meet people close to her in spirit, who feel the same passions for the piano!
