Diante do Trono (English: In Front of the Throne) is a Brazilian musical group of contemporary Christian and congregational music formed in 1997 at Igreja Batista da Lagoinha, in the city of Belo Horizonte, Brazil. It is led by singer, songwriter and pastor Ana Paula Valadão.
The group became popular in Brazil since the release of their self-titled debut album in 1998. However, it was from the albums Águas Purificadoras and Terceiro de Ti, from 2000 and 2001, respectively, that it acquired international relevance, becoming the largest praise ministry in Latin America and one of the largest ministries of praise, worship and missions in the world. It was also considered one of the most successful bands in Brazilian music. Until 2010, the band had a brass orchestra, conducted by maestro Sérgio Gomes, however, it promoted several instrumental changes throughout its career, becoming notably pop rock.
