HomeCategoriesChurch Golden Rules for Artists on your church
Church music (or sacred music) has been used for centuries for general worship and strengthening the community. Especially for a devotion or special occasions such as Christmas, Confirmation, or Communion, a live ensemble or solo artist is a classy choice. The Catholic or Protestant Church also went with the trend, which led to the fact that in addition to the classical organist, church musicians play on newer instruments, such as the electric organ, drums, or guitar. The type of hymn has also evolved in the last 40 years due to the emergence of a Christian pop music scene. Therefore, popular Christian music is found more and more often in church services. Gospel music, which is largely found in African-American congregations, has now also arrived in our churches. Classics like "Oh Happy Day" have already been sung in many church congregations. To perform these songs, for example, an unplugged combo consisting of cajon, guitar or piano and singers could be suitable. In addition, there are numerous other groups and individual musicians who specialize in sacred music. In addition to the traditional church choir, a gospel or pop choir is possible. Furthermore, trombone choirs give the service a special character. Church ensembles with a line-up of piano, winds, guitar and violin, or a string quartet are just a few of countless variations.
