Watch the ARISE website in January for a list of the breakouts. <BR/>I can tell you that Rory Noland, author of Heart of the Artist and so much more, is coming back & will be teaching a session on Building a Music Ministry and How to Prepare Spiritually to Lead Worship. <BR/>I just heard from John Carlson, (Music Director from Parkview Church, Iowa City, Iowa) he is going to be teaching on Leading Effective Rehearsals. And Chris I am going to work on getting a live band in the breakout.<BR/><BR/>I am working on your other suggestions. I will keep you posted.<BR/><BR/>PamPam Howellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07159894211701827498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3084270154121134976.post-89957248840437447062007-12-10T16:27:00.000-06:002007-12-10T16:27:00.000-06:001.

Many volunteers have mediocre music reading skills, this sounds great!<BR/><BR/>4 & 6. Might be redundant? Blend these??<BR/><BR/>11. Technology changes quickly, this sounds great! Also consider new tech trends, HT purchase technology well [cost-effectively] ensuring you get what you need and get the most out of it.<BR/><BR/>BLESSINGS TO YOU!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3084270154121134976.post-39448163499465780172007-11-07T13:21:00.000-06:002007-11-07T13:21:00.000-06:00Here are my picks:Understanding harmonyTheoretical...Here are my picks:<BR/><BR/><B>Understanding harmony</B><BR/>Theoretical aspects would be fine, but mostly I would be interested in the practical stuff - specifically for vocalists, how do you teach someone to improvise harmony? a third part? more interesting/extended harmonies? use of dissonance in vocal harmony? Or for instrumentalists, how do you teach someone to use chord substitutions/inversions and extended harmonies on various instruments?<BR/><BR/><B>Making music technology work</B><BR/>I would specifically be interested in learning more about sampling/loops/sequencing/etc. and how these can best be used in a live worship setting. Many bands are using this now - how can it be used in the church?<BR/><BR/>And in the "write-in" category:<BR/><BR/><B>Stage presence</B><BR/>How do you get people to inform their faces and bodies that their hearts are worshiping? :) How can we inspire people to include their physical bodies in worship more completely without being cheesy or strange?<BR/><BR/>Thanks for a great blog.Tristanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10868454682525698338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3084270154121134976.post-1213883412077576872007-11-06T23:25:00.000-06:002007-11-06T23:25:00.000-06:001.

Shaping the arrangement: song arc, emotional contouring, listening to the big picture, the power of contrast, sparse and dense instrumentation, playing sparse, laying out, filling holes, creating moods through timbres and effects, etc.<BR/><BR/>2. Stage presence: whole-hearted worship and ministry through your body, face and instrument. We could use some help from Abe Laboriel!Tom Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12762544862370004646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3084270154121134976.post-7557233798904284792007-11-06T22:13:00.000-06:002007-11-06T22:13:00.000-06:00Leading Effective Rehearsals - with a LIVE band a...Leading Effective Rehearsals - with a LIVE band and a leader actually running a rehearsal.<BR/><BR/>Music theory - yes!<BR/><BR/>The idea of building/leading a music ministry is great and hopefully part of that would be casting vision and setting values.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3084270154121134976.post-64195200439486368612007-11-06T20:57:00.000-06:002007-11-06T20:57:00.000-06:00How to package music IN the church but FOR the los...How to package music IN the church but FOR the lost.Heather Palacioshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06468942983799492993noreply@blogger.com
