Accompanist/Pianist at New Horizons Christian Church

NHCC is looking for a collaborative pianist for Sunday morning worship services. They will work with our co-music directors, cantor, and pastoral staff in providing accompaniment for hymns and occasional special music. Our music and technical team is flexible and collaborative, and works together to make sure the elements of our music, audio-visual system, and recording/streaming are all in place for every service.

  • Sunday services run from 10:45 to ~11:45 with prep/rehearsal time prior to that from 10:00 to 10:30, and the sanctuary is available earlier for practice.
  • Additional rehearsal time only as needed (decided/scheduled by the whole team).
  • Schedule and responsibilities are flexible and negotiable:
    • 2 to 4 Sundays per month
    • Possibly recording some parts for off-weeks
    • Option of helping to choose hymns or special music
    • Option of helping with AV setup (sound system, PowerPoint, etc)
    • $80-100 per Sunday (depending on exact responsibilities)
  • Music ranges from standard hymns to more contemporary praise choruses. 
  • Accompanist typically plays the baby grand piano, but organ and electronic keys are available.
  • Ability to read chords and wholly improvise parts is not required. Some ability to take liberties and edit parts on the fly is needed, however.
  • Ability to work with sound system and recording equipment is a plus, but is not required.

We would love to work with any other musical abilities or expertise you might bring to the table: other instruments/singing, composing/arranging, recording, etc. We are very flexible – the co-music directors add drum set, acoustic/electric/bass guitars, keyboards, wind instruments, or sing, depending on the music.
