Diana Ambache (Treasurer)

Diana has spent much of her life as a touring pianist, giving concerts in over thirty countries on five continents. Inspired by Mozart, she founded the Ambache Chamber Orchestra to play his piano concertos. She was short-listed for the European Women of Achievement Awards (2002) for her pioneering work researching and presenting music by women (www.womenofnote.co.uk).

Recently she turned to writing; her two books are The Soul of the Journey, The Mendelssohns travels in Scotland and Italy, and Grażyna Bacewicz, the First Lady of Polish Music. She now runs a Charitable Trust, raising the profile of music by women. Her hobbies include walking, reading, cooking and knitting.
