Cory Henry is not only an excellent musician but also teacher. I play keys as well and learned a lot about my own approach to harmony just from watching this video. "'Above All" is one of my favorite songs to play at church. No matter what your level of experience may be, there's always opportunities to learn. We are extremely blessed to have great ones like Cory!!

It seems like he plays the best in keys we normally don’t play. Like I hate playing in the key of B and E it’s definitely a different approach that you need to be mindful of what and who your playing for and with. It takes restraint to stay in structure when it’s so open but to harmionic and play ebharmonic you have to open the mind to space

I was so glad to hear him lecture on the process of reharmonization. I personally get so sick of musicians that just try to get so over the top and of course their intention is just to impress people and you become a distraction from the worship or the singer. And frankly the glory that belongs to to God in that moment. And let's be honest the bottom line is and I know y'all don't want to hear it but God is a jealous God and He does bring folks down who exhault themselves more highly than they ought to. So I think our music and our service should be to glorify God and not ourselves.
@kevinjackson44574 жыл бұрын
Preach Sir! My father was a pastor/singer and musician and he use to tell me all the time it is great to be progressive BUT it is even better to be disciplined and if you are not accompanying the singer, choir, minister or blending with the other musicians, then you are a distraction! Sadly a lot of musicians these days though talented wonder why they don't get hired and spend most of their playing time sheddin instead of touring. So glad I learned when I was young that there is a time to shine and a time for discipline and to understand the difference between the two.
