Donna learned to play the piano from her father, jazz pianist Byron Long. When she moved to Baltimore, she took two years of Music and Arts education at Catonsville Community College, and learned to play the fiddle from Brendan Mulvihill. Brendan and Donna performed as a Fiddle/Piano duo for 10 years in the Baltimore/Washington area and produced two CDs, "The Steeplechase" and "The Morning Dew."
Donna is also a former member of the internationally-acclaimed group Cherish the Ladies, and recorded five CDs with them. She also has a solo piano CD called "Handprints." In the year 2000 the Smithsonian Institution asked Donna to represent Irish music in the series "Piano Traditions," celebrating 300 years of the piano.
