CLASSES AND DESCRIPTIONS WORSHIP LEADERSHIP/GENERAL Kenny Lamm Worship Leader Boot Camp A total package of training and foundation for worship renewal in the local church. Participants will gain a grounding in theological, missional, and musical issues that will provide tools for worship renewal, particularly focused on moving a church from a group of spectators to a body of active participants in worship. (5 sessions) KEYBOARD TRACKS Heather Sorenson Congregational Accompaniment Issues Not sure what to add into your congregational accompaniment? Do you feel like you play every verse of every song the exact same way? How in the world do I modulate to THAT key from HERE?!! This session offers practical techniques that help us maneuver the Sunday madness. Give Me Something New to Play!! A session that highlights creative new keyboard resources. When You Can t See the Forest for the Trees Sometimes we forget why we do what we do. Sometimes service logistics {and fellow congregants} smother our worship. This session helps pianists - and other ministers - to take a step back and see the bigger picture in ministry. Playing Well With Others Many music ministries are transitioning. How does this affect the pianist? What new tools do we need to serve in this changing dynamic? This session will discuss our changing role in ministry, as well as how to read charts. The Basics of Keyboard Arranging Whether we planned on it or not, the church keyboardist often is required to add creative elements into their playing. Although delivered from a pianist point of view, these arranging tips can apply to any instrument or voicing.
