2. Church Keyboard/Organ

(For learners with intermediate piano/keyboard background)

Our church music course will greatly assist and equip believers who would want to improve their musical standard in church worship ministry and to bring the congregation to a higher level of worship.

Students will be taught on the various and effective worship styles: traditional & contemporary (e.g. pop, gospel, jazz) will be covered to broaden the students’ musical arsenal and to be confident in playing either as a soloist or with a choir.

Our past students include Christians from various churches who wanted to learn church worship music and to deepen their faith even though they were not in any choir.
