Bray joined Thiel College in 1996 as the Director of Choral Activities and became the sixth conductor in the history of the choir. During his almost 21 years at Thiel, he oversaw the work of the Thiel Choir, the Thiel College Chamber Singers, and the Thiel College Handbell Ringers, while also providing private instruction in voice and teaching world music and music history. Bray retired in the spring of 2017. Through the years, the Thiel Choir has presented concerts in the midwestern, eastern and southern regions of the United States and Canada and has performed on nine European tours including most recently to Ireland.
