The most common instrumentation is piano and organ, often placed on either side of the church at the front, so that each play may see the other and the choir director at the same time.  If the organ console is not facing the place where the choir director stands, then a mirror will be installed so that the organist can see.  Occasionally, for special events, other instruments will be brought in.  These are usually classical instruments like strings, woodwinds, or brass (especially trumpet).  Electric guitars, basses, and drum sets are rare.  Larger churches, like First Baptist Dallas, will regularly include a small symphony orchestra with the piano and organ, but smaller churches simply use the two [[Keyboard Instruments|keyboard instruments]] (or may only have a piano).
