[@GraceWanjakaranja]

Yes. More lessons on playing Church❤❤start with Amazing Grace (Traditional hymn) and the one you just beautifully sang... Bless the Lord OH My Soul....

[@JoeNitz]

I'm an aux keys player in my church band, so I'm already used to not being the star of the show :-) This lesson was really useful to me, and I'd love to see more lessons about playing in church! Thank you Lisa!

[@jayroededquid1078]

Yes Lisa please! I am very happy to know that you play worship songs! You are so beautiful! Thank you for all your videos! God bless you more! 😍

[@chrisoliver665]

Yes please.

[@michelleduclos2633]

Yes please! I was so excited when I saw this lesson.

[@RalucaBojor]

I had to improvise this past Sunday as the preacher kept on talking . . . we never know how long that is going to take lol! So yes, I did exactly that - the same four chords over and over again and it was perfect. The best part about being a church pianist is that the attention is NEVER on me. I am there to SERVE, I am not the spotlight. Jesus is the spotlight.

[@sitL777]

well said

Wow!! That’s great!! 😃 keep it up! ❤❤ I’ve self teaching for about 10 months now.

I always say I need the church piano secret toolbox, what a gift!

[@marksgameoflife8446]

Nice n simple and well explained lesson..its really relaxing playing that sus chord for awhile. Its like having a meditation lesson and a piano lesson at the same time.Thanks Lisa!

[@jonathancover4658]

Oh my… I have dreamed about being able to play like this. This is so educational and motivating!

[@christrajchristysdb6661]

Thank you, it sounds really great 👍

"You're not the Star of the show when you are playing background music" (c) Many musicians do really need to learn this phrase you said )))

[@humanbeing1429]

Especially drummers who choose to join in during background music.

[@ShoesUndone]

More worship leaders in general, imho. We are just providing the pathway for the congregation to worship. It's not about us at all.

[@ilive4god2007]

@@ShoesUndone well, there were at least two guitarists in our church, who needed to be constantly reminded by this truth, hehe )

[@ln9895]

@@ilive4god2007wait, you have guitarists at church? Forgive me for being surprised I’m European😭😭

[@diretoaospontos-victorbarb7377]

What's the best chord to play in church? ↓ Gsus

[@jollymathew2883]

Probably there is no such thing

[@debdebwwjd]

Any work. Probably not minors though unless you're last song was in I minor. I personally love the minor keys but majors are always uplifting

[@debdebwwjd]

Oh and just a thought. It's always best to play in the chords of the last song just in case your pastor wants to sing it again. At least you're already there without having to do a key change and it will just flow beautifully. Just adds to the anointing 😁

[@yumaniga5191]

wow....no one seems to have read the read more part. lol

[@anuragsuter]

@@jollymathew2883 there is Gsus is G sustain

[@pluseyi]

Can’t wait to be back in church when this pandemic passes and put all my pianote tutorial learnings to practice lol. Thank you Lisa & pianote!!!

[@chadtraywick2286]

Always looking forward to trying what I've learned in these lessons at the next church service benediction or prayer service.

Same with me

Me too. Pleasantly surprised

[@AwkoTurtle]

Right???! Had to repeat it several times. Wish she sang the whole song

[@franziskawilhelm4032]

1. Chords from the last song (transfer with arpeggio if needed) 2. Any Scale : 1456 in any order 3. Right hand: alternating sus chord (sus 2 or 4) and regular chord Left hand: 1456 as you wish Thank you soooo much!

[@mo.camino]

Franziska Wilhelm THANK YOU so much, Franziska. It is you who made me understand - Concise and clear.

[@shannonia81]

Lisa: *waves parental finger "This is why knowing your scales is important." 🤣 Me: *slinks off to practise scales

[@derpydudes7814]

Can you do that whole song? I'd love to learn it!

[@MinerDiner]

You can probably look up a chord chart online, or even a tutorial video on youtube

[@debdebwwjd]

I often wondered if you were a church goer. You obviously still play in church because that was a fairly recent song you used in the example in the beginning? Bless you Lisa I just love chords. So much you can do with them and so much fun. 🤗

[@kevinsmith1588]

Personally, I'd love more videos on playing at church. I play there too but it terrifies me.

[@PianoteOfficial]

Thanks! We will have more in the future :)

[@maynarddanielpalawar959]

When the pastor/preacher starts praying, piano players be like: "So I started playing the piano/keyboard..." and as a church player, I can totally relate! Love this video, and 10000 Reasons is just one of my favourite song. ♥

[@Lyranflyan]

May God bless you'r ministry...And please play for me (Holy,Holy,Holy,Lord God Almighty)

[@graemeharding2669]

Thanks so much. The 1, 5, 6, 4 chords will certainly help in practicing the different keys inversions as well!

[@jamesbizelli8292]

What a beautiful voice. No surprise there...... fits your generous and giving personality

[@rickneff-metal6275]

This is wild. I was just searching for gospel music last night and now this video popped up in my notifications. I found an incredible song called What A Beautiful Name by Hillsong Worship Anyhow, great video! Love you guys! ❤

[@PianoteOfficial]

I LOVE that song :)

[@rickneff-metal6275]

@@PianoteOfficial Me too! It's such a beautiful song.

[@debdebwwjd]

Love it too. One of my favorites. Play it at church all the time

[@rukutonienu3760]

You have a great voice, you should sing more often, please

[@mr2geeza]

Wow . Another simple but mesmerising tutorial. Thank you, God bless , stay safe and healthy 🙏

[@tonynitzke]

Ah yes. I remember the good old days when you could go to church in person rather than watch a stream. :)

[@joelpeter8068]

I would love to see how to play bless the lord oh my soul! Thanks

[@Katerina-vm2ok]

Great lesson...and yes, please give more lessons for playing in church. Thank-you! You are a wonderful teacher!

[@synchro505]

My teacher was a beast at background music during church services. He also played theater organ at a silent movie theater as well which I think added greatly to his technique for background piano at services.

[@debbyodom9594]

Thank you! You are the first online piano teacher that I’ve been able to stick with this long and actually love learning with! Love your sweet personality and easy to follow instruction.

[@SheilaghRiordan]

Having had no lessons for 3 months now (merci, COVID) , I’ve been a been lost and forlorn lately when I sit at the piano. You’ve helped me to thaw out and just start to explore. So grateful to you. Thank you.

[@KrowndPrince]

Simple and easy to understand . Keep up the great work 👑 blessings

[@mrlovalova5059]

10000 reasons why I'd like to listen to you singing the full song

[@neildusseault8404]

I'm Catholic. We have some of the worst music heard in Church (e.g., just watch "Sister Act" if you don't know what I am talking about). However, I lived in North Carolina for over 7 years and went with friends to many different Baptist churches. As a musician of 30 years, I have gigged in both environments. No disrespect but I can honestly tell you that none of what Lisa is playing would be acceptable in either environment. However, she's still great and as a music educator of 15 years, I highly recommend her videos for novice pianists!

[@PianoteOfficial]

Thanks for your input Neil! I don't have too much experience in those types of services :) This is designed definitely more for contemporary Christian Worship songs and services. For churches that would use Hillsong and Bethel-style music quite regularly.

[@vlaseansmithen3305]

Very nice and effective!Thank you so much for this information Lisa and also sharing some of your background😊

[@glentaylor6618]

I used to play just with my right hand and couldn't figure out how to play with the left hand, thanks to you i now use my left hand with a bit of difficulty but I'm improving, keep it up I injoy your lessons.

[@jinjunliu2401]

[@richardwashuk4871]

Absolutely Great. I know how popular the pop culture is but I love it when things focus more on the "churchie" side.

[@alejo5007]

Another great idea is to switch between the 1st and 4th chords of the key with the left hand and improvise whatever melody you want with the right one, while changing the intensity. You can actually spend hours playing that way without getting tired since it will always sound beautiful. There are plenty of songs that use that chord progression and they sound so emotive and relaxing (Obstacles by Syd Matters is the only one i remember right now but it's not christian)
