The Church Pianist: (Upcoming Article) Congregational Accompaniment Tip

The most demanding but enjoyable playing for me as a church pianist is accompanying the congregational singing.

The church pianist plays (no pun intended) a vital role in the congregational singing.  Maintaining a steady tempo throughout a hymn is extremely important. 

Over the years, church pianists have asked me what to play in between verses during congregational singing to prevent a stop and go scenario.  A very good question!  I’ll attempt to answer this question in this week’s upcoming article.
