Are you using full band? When is the production scheduled? Have you run into anything you needed to change from the score? I'd love to exchange ideas. We are performing this on Dec 13 and 14 in the evening as special services, with a choir of about 40, a live band and string section, and a wide range of soloists instead of just one worship leader. It seemed to be a popular decision and allows many people to share the load of leading songs, as opposed to just one person. We are also including about 15 children and dance. I was thinking of making an accompaniment DVD with looped worship images, lyrics, and the scriptures to project during the program. Does anyone have any ideas they'd like to share?

I was at Saddleback on a Sunday when Tim led worship and he led us in "Never Will." So, I ordered the books for my youth choir. I applaud you guys for your guts on this project. I'm not real thrilled about the writing for the choir, though. There's lots and lots of Worship Leader and solo, and not much for my kids to sink their teeth into -- and the tessitura is generally too low for my girls let alone my guys, who are just now singing an E-flat below middle C. I know this wasn't a youth choir project per se, but I don't have lots of choices... if it's 3-parts, and a style that my kids like, I consider it. I'd love for you to zero in on a youth choir project and write for real kids, but with the musical style you brought to this project. Thanks.
