We now have a network of arrangers contributing to this
signature series from PraiseCharts, featured by Integrity
at their Seminars4Worship
events. Worship Band charts are written "the way they would have done it
if they had an orchestra". Exciting brass licks and tasteful orchestrations
accompany your band and singers on the latest worship titles - all based on the
original recording. The scalability allows any size band or orchestra to sound
terrific.
Flowing out of the Worship Band Series is a collection
of arrangements written specifically to work with Integritys new iWorship
DVD series. This ground-breaking product provides a wonderful video presentation
to enhance your churchs worship experience.
Mark is the founding arranger for PraiseCharts, and offers a large collection of modern praise band arrangements that almost any musician can play. You will find hundreds of quality arrangements of the top worship songs for all the instruments in your praise band. Mark writes in a very accessible format suitable for small to medium size band, with parts for vocal, rhythm, brass, optional woodwind parts and, in many cases, strings.
As you browse through our catalog, you'll find a number of songs under the banner of Worship Together that only have a Light version available (i.e. lead sheet plus a separate piano part). Due to copyright restrictions, we are not able to offer full orchestrations for these songs. Furthermore, you will find that the lead sheet vocal line is limited to the melody line only (other lead sheets in our catalog general contain up to 3-part vocals).
Add some flair to your praise band with these jazzy instrumentals.
Great for offertories, preludes and postludes. Here you will find an extraordinary
collection of hymns and classic worship songs, appropriately arranged for your
praise band with a small horn section. This series features charts from the Henderson
Jazz Collection.
In addition to contemporary worship arrangements, PraiseCharts
is working in co-operation with IHg
Productions to bring you a small-but-growing collection of original worship
dramas. While these dramas have a seasonal focus in mind (i.e. Christmas or Easter),
you can adapt them to any non-seasonal worship service. The dramas are written
to be low production, high impact expressions of the gospel, using a blend of
worship, drama and multi-media.
Becoming an effective worship
leader requires discipline and development on a practical level as well as a spiritual
level. Alongside the many music resources that PraiseCharts now provides, we have a growing collection of Worship Articles that will help you grow
in the "art and heart" of Worship.
While most of our arrangements are based on popular recordings,
we refer you to other sites to buy those CD's for yourself. Recommended sites
include www.worshipmusic.com
and Integrity's www.songs4worship.com.
However, we do sell a few original albums directly from PraiseCharts. These have
been recorded by our arranger's, and most of the charts from these albums are
available for free from our Song List.
From the Guestbook ... "PraiseCharts provides a wide assortment of quality arrangements for every worship band situation. Nobody else does it like them." (Paul Baloche)
