Musical for Young voices
This new children's musical includes three Bible stories: Noah and the Great Flood, Jonah and the Great Fish, and Paul's Shipwreck. Each story features the ocean as a symbol for the chaos of life and shows how only the power of God is greater than the natural forces of wind and wave. Done in its entirety, the three stories flow into and reflect upon one another in an entertaining 45-min. program. As an option, each story can be performed separately as a 15-minute mini-musical. It's all done with a childlike playfulness full of humor and songs rich with catchy melodies. Done all at once or in parts, the theme that only God can bring peace to the hurricanes of life shines through with charm and resonance. The DVD includes just instruction for the choreography.

In the past twenty years, worship styles in many churches have transformed, emphasizing a personal worship that strives for intimacy with the Father. This renewal led some ministries, perhaps unintentionally, to abandon the great hymns of our faith in favor of newly composed worship songs. Other ministries, in an effort to create a balanced worship style, mixed the new with the old, sometimes with results that only amplified the differences between the two. Hymns for Praise & Worship bridges the stylistic gap between modern-day worship songs and the hymns of our Christian heritage. A select advisory board of active music ministers, Word Music staff and key choral arrangers were assembled to pinpoint fifty-six hymns from the vast array of hymnody, not only for their musical quality, but for the messages that they bring to worshippers today. Veteran choral arrangers John E. Coates and Travis Cottrell have been creating new settings of hymns for their own congregations for years. Their experience as worship leaders brought not only musicality, but also congregational and choral pragmatism to each new arrangement in Hymns for Praise & Worship. With all of the same editions and features as the Songs for Praise & Worship series, this collection is designed to work hand-in-hand with existing resources for worship. Various stylistic changes make these settings flow easily, appeal to the modern ear, and correlate with the styles of contemporary praise & worship songs. Throughout this book you will encounter variations from traditional time signatures, intuitive syncopated rhythms, and substituted chords and harmonies. Even the few hymns with more traditional settings are treated in a manner that takes the congregation on a journey through the verses, sometimes in a more through-composed manner, and usually culminating in a climactic conclusion. Each of the changes was not implemented arbitrarily, but with the goal of making the timeless messages of each hymn leap from the page in new and exciting ways. Two added features of Hymns for Praise & Worship are the demonstration and accompaniment recordings. While the songs in the collection are well known, the new arrangements are not. The staff of Word Music felt that it was vital to provide audible resources to teach and lead worship to best communicate the desires of the arrangers. All of the core editions (Choir/Worship Team, Worship Planner, Keyboard Edition, Guitar Edition) reflect the verses and voicings used on the recordings.

In 1976, Stevie Wonder released his double album Song in the Key of Life. This epic LP contained 21 hits but none bigger than this jazz infused ode to Stevie's daughter. Lifted to new popularity as Stevie serenaded Michelle Obama on the Tonight Show during her final week as the First Lady, this new arrangement captures the R&B feel along with the tenderness expressed between a dad and his daughter.

Ginge r Breadhouse, Carolyn Bells, Holly Branch, Candy Cane, Mary, and...Ned, Ted and Jed! These are a few of the names to be found among the cast of the new Simply WordKidz Christmas musical, The Christmas Cross! Created by Jeff Slaughter, with tracks produced and arranged by the team of Preston and Spencer Dalton, The Christmas Cross is a super-easy-to-learn, 27-minute musical designed to help you celebrate the season with the perfect setting for your kids choir!

In the opening scene, Miss Carolyn Bells, our children's choir director, is leading the kids through their first rehearsal for this year's Christmas Extravaganza. As they begin to share their thoughts on Christmas, the heart of the story comes to the forefront as Mary begins to tell everyone about the Christmas Cross - a very special ornament with special significance - an heirloom, handed down by her grandmother. As she explains the meaning behind the ornament...You can't have Christmas without the Cross..., this fun, lighthearted musical is beautifully and simply transformed into a powerful message about the love of God and the message of the Gospel.

Full of great new songs, in tandem with traditional carols and a humor-filled, Biblically-sound script, The Christmas Cross highlights Jeff Slaughter's signature brand of creativity. And, for the first time, he brings his unique style and infectious spirit to the Simply WordKidz Series, a fresh line of EZ-to-Sing-EZ-to-Perform musicals designed for both excellence and accessibility by the smallest of choirs, or for choirs with little rehearsal time. Bring an extra dose of Christmas cheer to your performance through the use of the production-enhancing DVD Accompaniment Track available, from WordKidz.

Clydesdale, this new musical is simply bursting with good news and great joy.

Together, these two creative giants of Christian music have fashioned a truly unforgettable Christmas worship experience.

Titled after the song made popular by Selah, Hope of the Broken World is a glorious mixture of more traditional SATB choral works in Let There Be Joy and Sing We Gloria, the innocence of children's voices in the ever popular A Strange Way to Save the World, the hauntingly beautiful Who Could Imagine a King?, the fun gospel styling of When the Little Baby Boy Was Born and O Bethlehem Mornin'. With multiple solo opportunities and children's choir throughout, it is ideal for most choirs and the 45 minute running time makes it the perfect length for any Christmas performance venue. This year at Christmas, share with your community the Hope of the Broken World.
