Linda McKechnie Music - Duo Keyboard

Duo Keyboard

Check the OVERVIEW under Published Music to listen to samples of arrangements, recordings, and view information on other published music options.

The duo keyboard arrangements are written for piano and organ.

However, these can be performed by two pianos if keyboard #2 (organ part) is played pianisticly. This does take skill and creativity but it could be fun!! It has been performed with two pianos many times and has become a personal favorite of mine!!

A Word from Linda

I sincerely hope that as you progress through this website, I may reflect a strong witness to my Christian faith and be an encouragement to you through my recordings on CD, or through the keyboard music and orchestrations that are now available from these recordings for you to perform.

About LInda

Linda grew up in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, in a very musical family and started playing the piano at the age of four. As a 2nd grader, Linda remembers accompanying her 2nd grade class for their Christmas program. Unusual as it might seem, she loved to practice, play by ear, compose her own melodies, and had a real passion to express her young Christian faith through the hymns and choruses of the church.
