Clarinetist Dina-Rosa's story is that of a young, modern day women who has pushed hard to become a rising star on the classical music scene. Her journey started with a $49 plastic clarinet for Christmas at aged 10, today she is being asked to stand in for professional orchestras at just the age of 16.

Dina graduated from high school two years early and has devoted herself to become a professional classical musician. Her journey continued by winning a coveted place at the #1 ranked musical school in the world - The Royal College of Music in London. She has enjoyed the time before going to London by researching the positive effects of classical music on mentally ill patients and horses, yes horses!

Dina was born in Atlanta in 2005 and had lived in 3 countries by the time she celebrated her first birthday. Her mother is Scottish and she has an English father. “returning to the UK after residing in the US for 15 years was the right thing to do” says Dina.

Dina-Rosa passionately promotes the wonders of classical music wherever she goes, but especially to the youth. She is deeply encouraged that recent music research is showing a rise in youthful appreciation for classical music and surprisingly robust increases in the young wanting to learn how to play an instrument.
