Bio
For years, Diane Taraz has been writing her own songs and breathing new life into traditional ones. She plays guitar, mountain dulcimer, and a lute-like instrument from the 1700s. Her historic programs explore various eras through the music of the time, and she has begun to record them as episodes of Singing the Past to Life. Her Youtube channel has a great many of her songs and performances from her two dozen albums.
Born in the Berkshire hills of western Massachusetts. Diane has long made her home in the Boston area. For over a decade she directed the Lexington Historical Society Colonial Singers. She is on the Scholarly Advisory Board of the Gilder-Lehrman Institute for American History in New York City and on the board of the Massachusetts History Alliance. Diane is a member of the Concord Women's Chorus and the Copley Singers.
Diane's songs have been used in the film A Little Prayer and on television shows, including the HDTV series My Lottery Dream Home.
