Playing Well With Others: Musical Collaboration in the Worship Service
Session Description
Musical collaboration in worship can be rewarding: it can build relationships, enrich the musical life of a congregation, and add more colors, timbres, and textures. We’ll discuss how to incorporate instrumentalists of all kinds into the musical life of your congregation, as well as how to use the organ in different ways. You’ll listen to musical colleagues collaborate and experiment together in real time. Musical collaboration takes time, but it brings great rewards.
