"My piano playing has improved greatly!"
"I have absolutely loved this course by Kris, it has given me motivation to practise and my piano playing has improved greatly! Kris is amazingly clear with what he teaches and there is a lot of content in the seemingly short 20 days. Would recommend!"
- Miriam G, Australia
(20 Day Church Piano Player student)
"By far the best"
"I’ve had other church piano courses but this one is by far the best because it is well-rounded. Not only does Kris cover music skills, the Pastoral Perspectives and Biblical Snapshots keep us focused on why we are there in the first place—to bring glory to God and help the congregation to praise Him. I highly recommend this course for any church pianist of any skill level."
- Kim S, USA

"Easy to understand and apply"
"Each video is short and easy to understand and apply to
other songs. Since I mainly just read music and I’m not creative, they’ve been helpful to me for improv and changing up the way I play hymns which is exactly what I was wanting to work on this summer.”
- Lisa A, USA
Why Consider My Course?
Do you sometimes feel lacking in both competence, and confidence in your role as the church piano player? You want to do the best job you can, and be a blessing to your church, but you don't know where to start?
Or...you're thinking about being the church piano player in your church, but the task seems overwhelming and you don't have lots of $$ for piano lessons, or the time to be searching YouTube for specific tutorials?
Maybe you have been playing worship piano in church for a while, but you want to improve and get out of the "rut" of playing in the same old way?
If this describes you, then the Church Piano Player Mini-Course is the solution you need to get you started and all this for less than the price of one piano lesson!
Not only will you get musical tuition specifically geared towards church piano players, including many tips, and creative ideas - you will also learn the biblical foundations related to church music, and benefit from pastoral perspectives on your role within the local church. Once you've experienced the results for yourself, you might want to consider further training with my other courses.
You will also receive free sheet music & chord charts for the following solo piano arrangements (from the album, "Communion", by Kris Baines)
1. Nearer, My God, To Thee
2. Come, Thou Fount Of Every Blessing
3. When I Survey The Wondrous Cross
4. Here Is Love
Bonus: You will also receive 8 bonus videos featuring overhead tutorials and flexible arrangement tutorials for each song. These videos are for players who read sheet music, and also those who play by ear/from chords. In addition to this, you will recieve a professionally recorded MP3 for each song too!
You will also receive my Worship Piano Vamping Charts resource for free ($4.99 value)
What is a Vamping Chart? It's a chord sequence you can follow to create a musical "holding pattern" either before or after a song (prelude/postlude) or as background music. It takes the thinking out of the equation allowing you to play around the chords in a flexible way.
~Psalm 47:6~
In addition to this, because I have spent 26 years serving as a pastor in a few churches, I understand the dynamics of congregational worship, from both sides of the piano. Because of that, I decided to make this course a bit different, and give you not just the musical instruction, but also the theological foundations, and pastoral perspectives, that really help you have a well-rounded understanding of being a church musician.
Happy playing!
