Chapel Stage Placement Mappings

Let God Arise     Key of E

• Musical intro  BIG instrumentally   C.S. please use the organ for this song.  You can hear it really well in the video.
• Verse 1    O.F Sings.  Guitars hold E.  M.W.  perhaps a metal Wawa patch for the verse?  Drums just high hat and bass drum like the video.  C.S., just hold a high E note on the organ and use the joystick for vibrato off until 'come and see' where you'd play 3-note chords (Em, D)
• Prechorus   Drums -double time on the snare like the video.  M.W. no more Wawa - just straight metal patch.  C.S. full 3 note organ chords.  We all play staccato (short) notes with the snare until the file 'saves' which we hold.
• Chorus 1 time  Vocals in unison.  instruments big.
• Short Instrumental with guitar solo
• Verse 2   C.M. Sings.  Guitars hold E.  Drums just high hat and bass drum like the video.  C.S., same as first verse - hold a high E note on the organ and use the joystick for vibrato off until 'He holds the keys) where you'd play 3-note chords (Em, D)
• Prechorus   Drums -double time on the snare like the video.  M.W. metal patch.  C.S. full 3 note organ chords.  We all play staccato (short) notes with the snare until the file 'saves' which we hold.
• Chorus 2 times  Vocals in harmony.  Instruments big.
• Instrumental into bridge - just full, held chords  A, E, B 2 times
• Bridge 4x start quiet with just voices in unison, high hat, and bass with short notes.  Building and adding instruments each time through the bridge.
• Chorus big cymbal shots and held chords until 'our God reigns' and then back into driving beats etc.
• Instrumental outro

You Are Good    in the Key of G    

• Instrumental intro  E. Guitar starts, then drums.  Bass, Keys (organ patch, right hand only playing high), and Acc. Guitar in big and do the intro again.  Remember the pause and guitar strum before we start the first verse!  :-)

Speaker talks here!!!


Great Are You Lord   in the key of E

• Intro  Keys start (piano layered with soft pad)  Acc. Guitars picking a bit.
• Verse 1  2 times  T.Z. Sings verse 2 times  Drums - similar to cover video (cymbal work and quite snare and bass stuff)
• Chorus subdued  but everyone singing
• Play through A, C#, B chords 2 times before singing verse again.  (these are the same chords as the verse and chorus so it should be a no-brainer)
• Verse 1 again  Drums and guitars more solid.  Everyone singing.  We may do 'Great are you lord' several times before going into the chorus...  follow me - I'll give queues
• Chorus 2x  Big, but not as loud and big as we can go.  Leave some room for later.  Really worship - sing to God.
• Instrumental into bridge.  Keys and acoustic guitar.  
• Bridge (several times).  T.Z  Sing it solo the first time - breathy.  Second time we all join singing, and we're starting to build, but don't build too fast.  Third time,  Continue building.   Listen for queues to either do it again or go into the chorus
• Chorus  FULL ON BIG!  2 times. 
• Bridge instrumental.  We may hang out here for a while.  Free worship etc.

Name above All Names/How Great is our God  key of E

• If we have time to do this one, I'll give the queue on the guitar to go into 'name above all names' (don't worry about the queue on the keys, C.S. - its just as easy for me to do it on the guitar)  I'll lead us through this one with vocal queues.
