About

Grace Becker is a composer, educator, and poet based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. She is excited to share her passion for spreading joy and writing music with the world. Grace grew up singing in choirs in her hometown of Bloomington, MN and began composing while receiving her bachelor’s in music education from Wartburg College. She quickly found purpose in the vulnerable, honest nature of this process. She has since composed a handful of songs, with her debut appearing in the Compose Like A Girl series through Graphite Publishing. She has always had a love for poetry and storytelling, often choosing to make settings of her own poems. Choral music has left a profound mark on her life and she is honored to be able to share her words with the public, hoping they will find those who need to hear them the most.​

​

Grace has a deep love for learning that translates into all facets of her career. While getting her Bachelor's degree she studied with renown composers Kyle Pederson, Dr. Karen Black, and Jocelyn Hagen. In July 2025 she attended the inaugural International Choral Composers Institute (ICCI) in Charlotte, NC where she studied with Dr. Raphael Fusco and Sherry Blevins.

​

Grace is trained as an operatic and soloistic voice, as well as in theatrical acting. She has performed as Cherubino in "Le Nozze di Figaro" with the Wartburg Opera Workshop in Waverly, IA, and has directed many elementary and middle school musical productions in her teaching career.

​

Aside from the choral world, Grace specializes in writing contemporary-style songwriting for celebrations and occasions. She has been commissioned to write the summer theme song for Camp Wapogasset Lutheran Bible Camp Inc. since 2023. Grace is also a lyricist for composer Chloe DeSteno on her works, "Dear You," and "today I set sail."
