+1 for Harmonic Instinct! I spend TOO MUCH TIME trying to memorize parts. I wouldn't need as much note-by-note or chord-by-chord memorization in my mind if I could learn to feel the music with my ears

@AllAboutWorshipGuitar Месяц назад

Upvote noted, thanks! To be fair, it took me a long time to train the instinct. I had a jumpstart from playing in wedding bands where I had to learn entire setlists in matter of two-three weeks. By the 60th song, I could recognise patterns.

@kennethbarnhouse7462 Месяц назад

Topic #3 - I started playing at 16 just on my own for fun, flash forward 40+ years later and I audition for my church's worship band. In the past 4 (or it is 5 now) years, my growth as a guitarist has skyrocket. Nothing like playing in a band and playing for the Lord. Nothing like getting a chart full of m7 M7 jazz chords and digging around RU-vid and learning about shell voicings before playing the song on Sunday and it's a Monday! So much of this video resonates with me. And you've challenged me on song memorization, learning chord patterns in songs and chord numbers system so I can switch keys if needed.

@AllAboutWorshipGuitar Месяц назад

Jazz chords for Sunday service music, oh my! You must be in a pro church! My current church ministry would shudder at anything more than a m7. Funny story, I remember adding in a mM7 (minor major 7th) and my old keyboardist thought it was a typo on the chart, not realising it’s a legit chord.

@jamesreyes4654 Месяц назад

Have you ever seen a Latino Pentecostal service? We have a section of music called jubilo/jubilee and I think it’s a lot more different than what you might be used to

@AllAboutWorshipGuitar Месяц назад

Oh my I would LOVE to see that. I was from a Pentecostal church for about 4 years and served weekly, with fond memories of high worship moments.

@CalvinLimSH-ld5le Месяц назад

Thanks for sharing what are some of the challenges guitarist faced when serving in the church worship ministry. For me is how to train beginner worship or song leader to sing and play in front of crowds confidently. They must learn to sing and play skillfully for the Lord and flow along with other musicians. The greatest challenge David did was rebuilding the tabernacle where he managed to established 4,000 musicians, 288 singers (12 x 24 = 288) and 4,000 gatekeepers. Today modern worship is based on David modal where we can enter into the presence of God anytime (24 hrs x 7 day).

Confidence is indeed something difficult to teach, it’s one of those things that are “caught rather than taught”. The band that served in church when I was became a Christian modeled what it meant to give God our best even with limited resources. Oh boy did they dance and jump before the Lord!

@user-qu3wm3ue1j 13 дней назад

my challenge is number 4

@AllAboutWorshipGuitar 8 дней назад

It’s definitely a struggle! Keep calm, address the issue as it pops up, and keep on worshipping!

@cyrilthomson Месяц назад

Worship is about our sacrifice, our offering, our life that's given to God. We've made it about music, Made it about our entertainment, about the flow, the show...

@AllAboutWorshipGuitar Месяц назад

Amen and amen. The concept of “flow” has been around for a long time though. For as long as we’ve had Sunday services, pastors and worship planners have been concerned about how best to structure our time around the word and table.

@addisonmerryman6541 Месяц назад

Amazing idea! Would love harmonic instinct videos

@AllAboutWorshipGuitar Месяц назад

Upvote noted! I’ll move that up my production pipeline.

@ULTyOsvald Месяц назад

deff agree about the humbling. its really hard to stand for two very quiet verses and a chorus without noodling lol

@AllAboutWorshipGuitar Месяц назад

Electric guitarists just love to fill in those spaces! For me that tendency came from Blues jams with call-and-response.

@nickhayes5471 Месяц назад

I love your videos mate and have used a few of your tips at church myself, it certain makes a difference when you play to serve the music rather than show off, it’s a fine line as guitarists we love to liven things up a bit lol

@AllAboutWorshipGuitar Месяц назад

Thank you for the kind words, and oh yes that's a very strong tendency. I love to liven things up, it's in my blood as a guitarist!

@codyt5 Месяц назад

I would definitely be interested in a lesson on harmonic instinct! I feel like it is the next step to learn in my musicianship.

@AllAboutWorshipGuitar Месяц назад

The request has been upvoted! I'd love to put training content like that together, it would be the first for my channel!

@jessemayra Месяц назад

Along with harmonic instinct I’d add an instinct for dynamics as the song needs it …when to build and when to not play

@AllAboutWorshipGuitar Месяц назад

I could call it...melodic instinct 😎

@josecabrera8744 Месяц назад

Been Very hard been in the music ministry when my wife doesn’t have the same faith and belief as myself Any advice?

@AllAboutWorshipGuitar Месяц назад

I know a drummer in a similar position and he tells me it’s a matter of being a good testimony to show his wife that his ministry is life-giving. Constant prayer and intercession, constant communication, but never pushing the Bible down her throat. His wife still isn’t a Christian but she doesn’t oppose his ministry, and that’s still a win. It’s a long journey!

@EricVadala Месяц назад

Talent vs expecting modelers to do all the work. I think people have a false confidence that they buy a patch and it will do everything the song needs. Knowing how to tweak the patch, adjust to your taste and setup for a dynamic of the type of song is all…well not built in the patch. The player has to be able to sometimes restructure the sound on the fly.

@AllAboutWorshipGuitar Месяц назад

That’s almost like putting on a producer’s hat to hear what sounds would work (critical listening to dissect tone) which is indeed something very important.
