How to Follow a Singer in Worship Piano (Breath, Flow & Feel)

How to Follow a Singer in Worship Piano (Breath, Flow & Feel)

In this lesson, I break down how to play worship style piano accompaniment for singers using the hymn Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus. I show how to follow a vocalist’s breath, phrasing, and dynamics, while using block chords, arpeggios, counter-melody, registers, pads, and strings to create flow, texture, and the true spirit of gospel worship piano.
