Sarah Dukes started playing piano when she was six years old
and composed her first song at the mere age of eight. Classically
trained until she was 18, the North Carolina raised pianist
increasingly turned to her music and songwriting as a way of
expressing herself, and by the time Sarah finished high school, she
had a stirring collection of original pieces that made up her debut
album, "Finding Forever", performed by world-renowned pianist,
Yaron Gershovsky.
Dukes was handpicked by Whisperings-Solo Piano Radio as one of
their exclusively featured solo piano artists, and her richly
nuanced songs have been featured in several popular documentaries
produced by Jewish Educational Media, as well as streamed on
various international channels including Enlightened Piano Radio,
One World Music Radio, and Pandora. Sarah's pieces have also been
featured in the in-flight entertainment package for a few
airlines.
Sarah recently released a new album of original piano solos,
“Life Sometimes”, which has been selected a winner in the Global
Music Awards and was honored with a Silver Medal for Outstanding
Achievement in Music in the New Age Solo Piano and Album
categories. This album was ranked #17 on Zone Music Reporter’s “Top
100 Radio Airplay” chart, and was on the first round ballot for the
59th GRAMMY® Awards. Additionally, Dukes' emotional composition,
"Dancing in the Dark" has been selected as a finalist in The John
Lennon Songwriting Contest in the World category of 2016. The most
recent releases of her singles One: Orchestrated Version, and
Raining Rockets introduced a new level of musical beauty to her
already powerful collection of original compositions.
Sarah's compositions offer listeners soothing, melodic
arrangements bursting with an emotional energy that is unmistakably
straight from the heart.
