LME is an ongoing, two-year course of study for parish musicians who desire to become further equipped in the basics of Lutheran church music and theology. Classes will be held one Saturday a month for eight months out of the year.
Students can complete the full course of study within two years.
This is the perfect forum for keyboardists of all sorts to become better acquainted with the organ and its use in leading the church s song. LME is designed for the part-time parish musician who has a weekly job and likely family responsibilities as well. Thus, choir directors who may not be interested in service playing, can arrive in time for worship, core course and elective. Organists, who may not be interested in an elective in choral conducting, could arrive in time for service playing and leave before the elective. Class sizes are small, with plenty of opportunity for questions and group discussion.
