Look over the list below and start LISTENING to the songs and learning the WORDS. It is very important that you invest time into preparation before the workshop to learn the music so we can focus on taking it to the next level during the workshop! Once you receive music, print it out, make up your music binder and have fun practicing! Let’s SING for JOY!!

“Right-click” on an audio track and choose “save audio as” to save to your computer/device so you can practice easily even without internet access.

7. RIDE THE MORNING WINDS – Mixed Chorus

The size of this group will be determined by how many guys come prepared knowing their part. Every guy that knows their part will be able to sing in it. Then we will add girls that know their part to balance it out. This is an optional song, and we will only do it if we can put it together quickly. It will also be used for conducting training, so practice conducting with the recording!

8. GOD WANTS TO HEAR YOU SING – Solos, Guys Trio or Six, w/backup Choir

The size of this group will be determined by how many guys come prepared to sing their parts. The tenor part is quite high. If you can sing that range, please learn the part!! We will solidify the guys parts and then add girls to balance it. Choruses start at Measure 39. Soprano part is included very quietly on other parts for reference/words. I’d like a male solo on Verse 1, then a male trio or guys six on Chorus 1, then a female solo on Verse 2.

CHORUSES – SOPRANO

CHORUSES – ALTO

CHORUSES – TENOR

CHORUSES – BASS

SOLOS (Verse 1: Male; Chorus 1: 3-6 Guys; Verse 2: Female Solo)

Guys, sing an octave below what you hear on this track. This track will be updated once we finish the guys parts for Chorus 1.

10. HOW GREAT THOU ART (#86) w/Gabriel’s Oboe – Choir & Instruments & Congregation

FULL SONG

This track has some irregularities, as I dubbed piano over a church recording that didn’t have enough piano in the mix, but it gives you the idea. Sing the melody on the verses, and parts on the choruses if you can. It’s in the Key of G, and goes to A.
