Currently, numerous organists are fulfilling the role of playing for Mass whilst also engaging in a "day job," and many parish organists possess limited training or have transitioned from a background in piano lessons. Given the constraints of limited formal training and practice time, is such advanced musicianship beyond the reach of organists with more modest abilities?
