Dunietz began to study piano at the age of 5 with Jenina Lobenberg.
She also studied flute with Moshe Epstein, theory, and solfege with Lev Kogan.
At age 10 she took composition with Keren Rosenbaum, who introduced her to a new world of experimentation with sound and ignited an ongoing creative collaboration with Rosenbaum and her Reflex Ensemble.
Between 1993-2006 Dunietz studied piano with Naomi Lev, Daniel Gortler, Yaron Godfried, Ofer Bryer, Amit Golan and Alexander Volkov.

During that time, she was introduced to the concept of joik - a unique form of cultural expression of the Sami people in Sápmi, Northern Europe.
A joik is the evocation or depiction of a thing through voice (as opposed to a song, which is about that thing).
This concept deeply influenced Dunietz and it resonates with her work ever since.

At 16 years of age, Dunietz traveled to Côte D'ivoire as the young Israeli representative of Jeunesses Musicales for an international music convention, where she met mbira master, singer, and songwriter Chiwoniso Maraire who became her close friend and artistic collaborator until Maraire’s passing in 2013.
In 2013, Dunietz initiated and directed a unique tribute project to Emahoy Tsegué-Maryam Guèbrou as part of the Jerusalem Season of Culture.
It included the first-ever publication of Guebrou’s piano pieces in a music sheet book and a series of concerts performed by Dunietz and international musicians, presenting Emahoy’s abundance of celebrated compositions created over 90 years.
Dunietz has been performing recitals of Emahoy’s music around the world in venues and festivals such as: Counterflows Festival (Glasgow), Clandestino Festival (Sweden), Café Oto (London), Tectonics Festival (Oslo), The Wulf (LA), Le Guess Who?
Festival (Netherlands) and La Gaîté Lyrique (Paris).
