Special Guest-Joel Raney
JOEL
RANEY started playing the piano sometime between learning to walk and
learning to read. His taste for gospel music began in a rural Baptist
church in Alabama, an influence that shows strongly in his work to this
day. After completing his degree in choral conducting at the University
of North Alabama, he went on to sharpen his keyboard skills, earning a
masters degree in piano performance at The Juilliard School.
Since 1999 he has taken the church music scene by storm, with over 200
titles in print, primarily with Hope Publishing where he serves as
Editor. His innovative style and inspired arranger's instincts put his
numerous choral anthems, musicals and cantatas, handbell compositions,
piano solos, and instrumental works at the top of sales charts year
after year. In addition to publishing with Hope, Joel's work can be
found in the catalogs of Heritage Press, Shawnee, Hal Leonard, Alfred,
Fred Bock Music, Jubilate, and AGEHR.
Joel's interest in music of all kinds has led to employment
opportunities in everything from classical and jazz performance to pop
vocal arranging. He has conducted national tours of Broadway
productions, and has been honored for outstanding musical direction of
theater in both Chicago and Los Angeles. Since 1988 he has worked as a
composer and producer of commercial music in Chicago and has written
soundtracks for more than 2000 television and radio commercials, plus
numerous scores for short films.
