Emmanuel Okafor
Keys and musical direction for services, weddings and conferences
About
I am a keyboardist and musical director. Alongside playing, I can lead rehearsals, arrange the set, and direct the band during the service, which is useful for churches without a permanent MD.
I trained classically before moving into gospel and contemporary worship, so I am equally at home accompanying a hymn on piano as I am running pads and synth textures under a modern worship set. For weddings I am happy to learn a specific processional or first dance.

Redeemed Assembly, Manchester
Emmanuel directed our Christmas carol service and the difference was night and day. He rehearsed the band properly and the whole service flowed.

Played for our wedding ceremony and learned a song that is not widely arranged. Beautiful playing, completely professional.

Excellent musician and very organised. Slightly over our budget but worth it for a flagship event.
