ABOUT RICHARD DICKSON

My Story and Yours

Whether you are a musician or not, my desire is to encourage and inspire you.

One way that I can do that is by providing music for you to listen to.

A second way is creating music that other pianists can play, as well as providing training in areas relevant to pianists and other musicians.

Providing devotional content, primarily related to scripture and hymnody is a third way to achieve this dual purpose.

As you explore this website, you will hopefully find other ways that will meet your own needs for encouragement and inspiration.

So, you might be wondering what qualifies me to serve you.

The beginning is a godly heritage. My parents were, and are, followers of Christ, and had me in church before I was even born.

As I grew, I came to have a personal relationship with Christ, and to understand He was calling me to serve Him.

My parents were also responsible for getting me into piano lessons the summer of my seventh birthday.

This twin involvement with the piano and the church, as well as God’s call on my life, led me to Ft. Worth, TX, and Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in 1978. There I learned from great music and theological teachers and earned a Masters degree with a Concentration in Piano.

From that beginning, I’ve served several churches as Music Worship Leader/Minister of Music in traditional, contemporary, and multi-generational settings.

It is my hope that the gifts, talents, and experiences that I’ve had will benefit you.
