The Church Pianist: Free Piano Congregational Arrangement (Amazing Grace)

New website: http://thechurchpianist.com

One of my favorite hymns: Amazing Grace!

I have more improvising liberty on this song

because the congregation sings unison and they

are very familiar with the tune.

Congregational style playing tips for :Amazing Grace

1. Remember...don't slow down at the end of

introductions.

2. In 3/4 time, accent first beat of each measure
for controlled tempo and shapely tone.
If you play every beat with the same weight,
you will overwork your hand and produce a
mechanical tone.
