Welcome to the Advanced Musician Hymnal/Congregational Course  

Here you will learn the melody, basic chording and advanced gospel style you can apply to these standard hymns. If you have the African American Heritage Hymnal we will be learning the selections in the key found in that publication. We will be using selected songs found on this list and will post which ones are on the current lesson. If you are not an advanced musician you are still welcome to view the information on this page :)

Let's get to work!
