Those of you who know John Bell's music, heard him at APCE--or know youth who will be spending time with Bell at Montreat this summer (he's scheduled to be at all 4 youth conferences)--may be interested in the 9-part DVD curriculum SINGING THE UNSUNG (c2010), which is currently on sale for $39.95  (Regular price: $200.00) Sale is listed as being "for a limited time," but I haven't seen a deadline. 
      http://www.livingthequestions.com/xcart/product.php?productid=144&cat=470&page=1
Unlike some of the other curriculum from this supplier, the license does not need to be renewed annually; and the discussion guide is freely downloadable by anyone. ( http://www.livingthequestions.com/xcart/files/dvd/bell/STU%20Supplemental%20Materials.pdf )

While most of the 30-minute segments are focused on improving congregational singing and broadening a congregation's range, two segments specifically deal with the broader topic of worship.

Foothills Presbytery Resource Center has a copy, but the DVD set does not seem to be widely held in resource centers. I brought the Foothills copy home last week to view after seeing the sale price.  My husband and I watched the entire set over a period of 2 days and found ourselves making notes and searching out some of the music presented there.  I returned home this evening to find that my husband was listening to one segment a second time.  He's not a musician but a person one who greatly appreciates a wide spectrum of music, and he remembered hearing several hymns that he wanted to hear again before I return the DVD to the Resource Center.

I ordered a copy of this yesterday. Watched a clip online and think it looks great – am hoping that many churches will be checking it out.

 

Shalom,

Karen
