A Little Background
After the loss of her husband of 63 years; Diana says she was feeling sad and lost one night just before he passed. So she decided to sit at the piano and just play. Out of that grief came a melody and then the entire song. She didn't even realize she had the ability to compose her own songs. Her song 'Dreams' is dedicated to her late husband.
The 87-year-old said: "Thank you all so much for your wonderful reception of my music. Just unbelievable." Overcome with emotion, Diana was unable to finish her speech but continued to receive a well-deserved applause and cheering from everyone in the room.
But the surprises didn't stop there, as Mika and Jon revealed that each of the seven finalists would be gifted a piano, following on from last season's tradition.
Diana initially blew away Jon and Mika at Newcastle station with her performance of Dreams, which is an original composition.
Catch the moment below.
Before her final performance she needed to rehearse with the string quartet which is something she had never done.
