What are some good types for singing an individual note in a piano chord?

Q. I am auditioning for a choir soon and we need to be able to sing an individual note in a piano chord, i.e. sing middle C when a C chord is being played. Some tips would be great. xx

A. You really need to just practice. Sit at a piano and play a chord, and immediately sing all 3 notes in the chord. Then get someone to ask you to sing the top one, middle one and lowest one separately. You'll get the hang of it pretty quickly :)

Original Question

How do I make piano chords sound less boring?
Q. I use piano chords to accompany myself as I sing, but it just sounds boring.. Any tips on how to make it better? Like some notes to add or something? What do I add?

A. Instead of just playing straight chords, try playing broken chords. For example, where you would normally play CEG at the same time, play each note just a fraction of a second after the first. Another thing you could try is playing the notes of the chord in a different order, so again for example, instead of CEG, play ECG.

Original Question

How do I convert or change piano chords to bass guitar chords or tabs?
Q. Usually when I try to find gospel bass tabs or chords, I'm sent to sites that only have piano chords. Someone said that I could get the chords for the bass from the piano chords.

A. Typically the bass plays the same chords that the piano is playing, as both are concert C instruments. So an A chord on the piano is an A chord on the bass. Of course this is assuming you have the chords written above each measure. If this is the case, have the bassist improvise a line based on the chords. It's easy. If the chords are not written, you'll have to figure them out from the key of the piece and the melody written.
