How to Sit at the Organ

Sit up straight and relaxed. If your organ seat can move up and down, adjust it to a comfortable height. If your seat is too low, sit on a cushion.

Hand Shape

Always curve your fingers as if you were holding a ball. This helps keep your fingers at the same level, as shown in the drawings below.

When you play the keys on the organ, use the tips of your fingers and the side of your thumb.
