Martha De Luna, Music Director and Parish Administrator
Our Music Director and Parish Administrator, international artist, Martha De Luna. Martha is a multifaceted musician and creative artist whose talent and virtuoso playing is incomparable. In her musical profession, she’s a composer, orchestral/choral conductor, pianist, harpist, organist, and singer; however, she also plays as an amateur on many other instruments. Martha began her musical studies in San Pedro de Macoris, Dominican Republic, and it was in her church where she developed a deep love for sacred music to praise God and share his message of love. For this reason, sacred music is the most important part of her musical career. She has won top prizes and awards for her piano performances in the Dominican Republic and the USA. Her compositions have been performed in The Vatican, the Dominican Republic, and the USA, and her improvisational skills are breath-taking. Martha is the only professional musician who has performed a harp concerto and a piano concerto in the same concert with the top symphony orchestra from the Dominican Republic, and she was chosen to play her piano composition “Celebration” at the Super Bowl Houston Live 2017. She did undergraduate studies in piano and harp in the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico and has three graduate degrees from Stephen F. Austin State University (a MM in piano, a MM in harp, and a MM in choral conducting.)
