Well led by <a href=\"http:\/\/worthilymagnify.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Jamie Brown<\/a> and rest of the music teams, and a great sound from the church. Some thoughts in no particular order:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Loved the corporate reading of Psalm 150 to go with &#8220;Praise the Lord&#8221; &#8211; makes me wonder what other liturgical elements work well on a Sunday morning, would have been neat to include those elements in the recording too (transitions, leading comments from Jamie\/others)<\/li>\n<li>This is the first live worship music CD I&#8217;ve heard that pairs organ with contemporary band really well. The voicing is a mix between letting the organ shine in places &#8220;Praise My Soul the King of Heaven&#8221;, to very able &#8220;synth&#8221; sounds in other songs to add depth. Organ + band can <em>definitely<\/em> be done!<\/li>\n<li>Very congregational keys for each song &#8211; Chris Tomlin copycats take note!<\/li>\n<li>The mix highlights active congregational participation (singing, rhythmic clapping) really well. If there was a video recording I&#8217;d almost imagine joyful dancing too&#8230;<\/li>\n<li>Really neat song choices &#8211; I know about half of them (mostly the Sovereign Grace ones) but was stirred to worship with all of them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You can read about the Falls Church&#8217;s story <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tfcamusic.org\/pages\/the-story\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>. Jamie Brown and the gifted musicians at TFC would be my go-to example of a large evangelical Anglican church doing sung worship with excellence and joy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&quot;A Thousand Amens: Live Worship with The Falls Church Anglican&quot; releases this Sunday!
