All Things Bright and Beautiful Concert
Celebrating the Wonder of Creation
Join us for All Things Bright and Beautiful – festival choir, instrumental ensemble and congregational singing – on Friday, June 7 at 7:00pm at Brandywine Valley Church in Wilmington, Delaware. Enjoy an evening of music and praise led by world-renowned sacred music composers Joseph Martin, Heather Sorenson and Joel Raney. The concert will highlight music celebrating creation. Each Christian music composer will share one of their newest choral works, sung by a talented choir of vocalist from our local area. Throughout the concert, the composers will tell of how God has blessed them throughout their careers. Admission is free and tickets are not required. See you on Friday, June 7!
COMPOSERS
Joseph Martin
Joseph Martin is celebrated around the world for both his sacred and secular music, which includes over 2,000 compositions. The way he brings humor into his performances is only matched by his phenomenal solo work on the piano. Come and enjoy both sides of this dynamic artist.
Heather Sorenson
Heather Sorenson’s diversity is the characteristic that makes her somewhat of an anomaly in the music industry. Her music easily maneuvers both the traditional and contemporary genres of Christian music, often combining the two for a unique blend that has become her artistic fingerprint.
Joel Raney
Joel Raney’s life as a working composer and musician has been shaped by many influences. Growing up in a rural Baptist church in Alabama fostered his love for the old hymns and the gospel style. As a performer and music director for theater productions, he gained insight into Broadway, popular and jazz music. His style has brought life and joy to church music.
