Pianist needs advice playing Christian music..?

Question

I am a classicaly trained pianist. The worship leader at my church wants me to start playing the piano with the worship team. Well, I have never played with that many other instruments let alone that kind of contemporary music, it is completly different from playing Bach or Chopin. I really don't know what to do. So, I guess I just need some advice from anyone who has that kind of experience.

Answer 1

Pray and then honesty would be best. Let them know you feel uneasy about this. And you need all your energy to encourage those other musicians who support the ministries also. I pray that all works out for you. Good Luck and maybe checkout some of the sheet music and see if you can't come to a compromise. Maybe, you can practice some and see if you can work it in. God Bless.
