Actually there are many rules and exceptions on when to use each word, so I will give you the most basic meanings of each word.
Da = from / by
Di = from
a = to / at
per = for / in order to
Examples: Io vengo DAL (= da + il) dottore
(I'm coming from the doctor's office.)
Io sono di Cina. (I am from China).
Io sono di Cina ma vengo DAgli Stati Uniti (I am from China, but I am coming from the United States)

Studio la musica per fare la musicista (I'm studying music in order to become a musician)
