Introduction Diana Yukawa is an award winning solo violinist. Following her 2 successful solo albums with BMG Japan Diana has signed to Sony Music Japan as an international artist. Diana’s new album “The Butterfly Effect” was released on 21st October 2009 in Japan and comprises a new modern sound for the violin, far removed from her previous classical albums. At only 24, Diana has lead an extraordinary life. Born in Tokyo to an English ballet dancer and a Japanese banker just 3 weeks after the 1985 Japan Airlines disaster that took her father’s life, Diana has crossed cultural boundaries in her personal life and is pushing to cross even further in her professional life as a talented and much celebrated violinist. Diana’s ambition as a musician is to demonstrate that the violin is a diverse instrument, capable of fitting into a wide range of music genres. Diana will once and for all break the common misconception that the violin is purely a classical instrument.
