Daria Challah is a classical music writer, presenter and digital storyteller.

Driven by a mission to bring classical music to new and younger audiences, Daria founded Herbert Music in 2023 — a social media channel dedicated to re contextualise both historic and emerging composers and artists for the digital age. The channel has since grown to over 125,000 followers across platforms, establishing Daria as one of the most distinctive new voices in classical music communication.

Through Herbert Music, she has forged partnerships with leading cultural institutions and music businesses across Europe, including the London Symphony Orchestra, the Elbphilharmonie, Southbank Centre and Pierre Boulez Saal. 

Alongside her social media work, Daria created the Substack series ‘Art of Listening’, to explore how intentional listening can enrich everyday life.

Daria’s writing and speaking credits include A Rabbit’s Foot, Triennale Milano and Beyond the Music Festival.
