Diego Carneiro was born in Belém, in the Amazon region of Brazil. He studied cello, piano, viola da gamba and conducting, in Brazil; at the University of Missouri in Columbia, Missouri; at Trinity College of Music in London; and at the Haute Ecole de Musique, in Switzerland.
Diego has had broad and varied musical career, including cello performance, conducting and composition. In 2009, Diego established a foundation called AmazonArt, originally based in London and now based in Ecuador, with the mission of “changing lives through music.” Since 2016, this mission has been fulfilled largely through the Orquesta Joven del Ecuador (Youth Orchestra of Ecuador), of which Diego is the founder and music director.
