I find myself in similar circumstances. I have played the piano and organ for many years and along with that I pray, plan, and practice for these performances.
I am thankful for the opportunities that come my way but there are times that I feel somewhat unappreciated. I try super hard not to let it bother me.
Thanks for sharing and letting me express my feelings.

The accompanist works really hard to learn to each piece. They usually have invested $100 to learn to play the piano or organ. It is hard to feel necessary and appreciated when no one seems to notice you. What really gets me when Im asked to play a piece in a day or two and the person asking says “it’s easy, I can play it” then they hand it to you and its full or key changes and runs and you know they can’t play!

I’ve actually had some give me back the music because they can’t play it.
But lately, I have tried to make sure they know how appreciated they are, especially when I recognize that they are much more skilled than I am.
This is a wonderful reminder to me to be more thankful, to recognize and appreciate my Savior’s hand in all things. Thank you.
