Compositions and Arrangements by Dr. Nicole Doran
April 2026
4/14/26 A new version of “April Dreams” is now available in Ko-fi for voice and piano with extended lyrics. Piano and voice make a great platform for the colors of spring. And with a nicely tuned piano and everyone ready to sing after Easter this version should be a delightful addition for Spring Recitals and dream planning for the season of growth ahead.

Please consider purchasing this one as a special piece of music to prepare a person for graduation or additional scripture meditation projects, only 19 left on this limited edition until February 28th to raise funds for my compassion child’s agri-business in Kenya. I am so proud when I see a person I invested in flourishing in the gospel and using his gifts to serve others. More details and price here: https://ko-fi.com/s/395f730020

Through a regular teaching studio, reed making, commissions, and performing music at local churches I am funded to provide some of the time and materials needed to savor teaching cantatas to kids and pursue music with the Chattanoonga Music Teachers Association where I see the focused diligence to train myself on so much technology and business skills that need updating constantly modeled by musicians who are making the field rich. I know the work will bless people and myself and I commend your work and your kind support of Doran Music Studio to the glory of God.
