Sponsored by Glen & Judy Brown Richardson

A vast majority of Hispanic liturgical repertoire is guitar-based, such that leading these songs entirely from the keyboard can be a daunting challenge. From cumbia and bolero to salsa and vallenato, Hispanic styles provide a captivating if not complex study in rhythmic and harmonic structures. This session provides a basic understanding of how these quintessential styles function and how they can be authentically emulated on the keyboard in a worship context. With knowledge of their inner workings, you’ll experience a variety of Latin-American styles modeled with fluent authenticity for your Spanish-singing congregations.
