Synopsis

A "how-to" rather than a "why-to" book, Changing Your Tune guides music directors through the various aspects of preparation, start-up, and follow-through necessary for successful and meaningful music leadership in contemporary services. Lynn Hurst provides numerous references of what to look for (and where to find it) regarding equipment, music, and personnel. She shows how to get going and, perhaps more importantly, how to keep going week after week, and how to do so while maintaining high standards of quality and integrity. KEY FEATURES: * Easy-to-use primer style, written for the music leader who knows little about the contemporary worship and music "scene" * Contains information on where to find equipment and music * Helps music leaders understand a wide range of issues and realities related to contemporary worship and music style
