Music

For over six decades, music has been at the heart of Dr. Craig E. Soaries’ life and work. A classically trained pianist, organist, and composer, he is a versatile performer whose command of the pipe organ, Hammond B-3, harpsichord, piano, and digital keyboards allows him to navigate seamlessly between classical, gospel, sacred, and improvisational genres. His music is not merely performance—it is a spiritual practice, a cultural expression, and a dynamic form of ministry that speaks to the soul of his audiences around the world.

 

Dr. Soaries’ musical journey began in childhood, guided by his mother’s early piano instruction and nurtured by the support of his father. This strong foundation led to decades of formal study, concert appearances, and leadership in music ministry. Beyond performance, he is also an educator and musical theologian, using music to explore themes of faith, emotion, and human connection. His teachings emphasize the emotional depth and transformative power of sound, making him a sought-after presence in both sacred and academic settings.
