Jane Best

JANE BEST was born in Kingston, Ontario and began learning piano there as a child. When she moved to Toronto, she continued studying piano at the Royal Conservatory of Music, and also participated in the children's choir at St. George's United Church. Later she studied music part-time at the University of Toronto before moving north 25 years ago to Manitoulin Island, to raise her family in the beautiful fresh air surrounded by lakes and trees and rocks. She directed choirs for 6 years at Lyon's Memorial United Church in Gore Bay, and went on to serve as church musician for All Saints Anglican for 8 years. Presently she serves as one of the worship leaders for the Island Community Church, and directs the Manitoulin Community Choir, a choir of approximately 30 voices of many ages, and a sacred vocal quartet called In A Chord, which visits churches to sing both a cappella and accompanied music. Together with her family and friends she has recorded 3 CD's of her songs. Several of her other choral pieces are available from Cypress Choral Music and from Kelman Halland from Oceanna Music. In 2013, a book of 45 of her hymns, entitled Flowing Spirit, was published by Wayne Leupold Editions, Inc. Two more of her hymn tunes may be found in More Voices, one is in the Pax Christi Chorale's book entitled Great Canadian Hymns, and several others will be published this spring. Jane also teaches piano and guitar and folk harp. She is a member of The Hymn Society, and also attends the Summer Institute of Church Music for encouragement and fresh inspiration.
