Music
At TABC our music caters to a wide cross-section audience. While mostly contemporary in style (including such sources as Matt Redman, Chris Tomlin, and Hillsong), we also like to draw upon more diverse elements, including the depth often found in hymns.
With different sources and styles, this can be a challenge musically, but we work away at practice to get the variety of songs to gel effectively. A team of individuals (with our own unique ways of playing/singing), such contributions still however work under the goals and direction of the worship leader.
As a team our general tone is relaxed, but it's also music with a purpose. As well as being worship oriented, it will also often tie in with the theme of the morning's message. So song selection is important, but perhaps more important than this, is having the right kind of heart and attitude.
A reasonably large team, we number around 30 rostered musicians and singers, with 6 or 7 additional people helping on audio and visual. Practices are on a Thursday night; 6:30 'til around 8:45pm. If you're interested in joining the team, please talk to Anne Falconer or Andrew Miller.

VISION: We aim to develop and use our talents to serve God and the Church. We also aim to draw people nearer to God through music.
