BIO
Charla Murray has a Bachelor of Music Degree from Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, OK. She has been writing music, presenting concerts and in church music ministry with her husband, Brian, since early 1970. She has directed choirs, ensembles, and was a music teacher in a Christian School. Starting at age 14 playing for church choirs, Charla has accompanied choirs through junior, high school and college.
Her music is refreshing and uplifting. I would recommend her for any type of reception music (vocal or instrumental), weddings and wedding receptions, easy listening background reception music for corporate events or special guest soloist/artist for a church concert.
Mrs. Murray has licensing with CCLI, BMI and CDbaby. All of her music is available for download on sportify, facebook and youtube. Charlasonnermurray Children’s CD includes accompaniment tracks for children’s ministry and kids camps along with songbook. Some sheet music for cello is available on her site. Daystar Recording - Denver, CO engineered and produced both CDs.

It has been such a joy to see our young daughter sing and play for us. At age 5 she has sung and played piano at the same time. When we had to change studios there was nothing but acclaim, from the new studio, regarding the quality foundation she had received from Ms. Charla. Thank you!

My daughter age 12 has taken lessons from Ms. Charla for over a year. Ms. Charla keeps a firm hand in technical training of music lessons, but with a kind manner.

My daughter 17 is taking voice lessons and Ms. Charla is developing various styles of voice repertoire; classical, gospel, theater and theory. She is also taking piano to be a well rounded musician and singer. She sang in the Christmas concert, though she had just started lessons.
