- I will be capturing more footage every time I arrange, perform and/or music direct something. I will share these moments, because I hope they can be helpful to any aspiring musicians, arrangers and music directors out there. Think of it as an open look into my approach and my process. Hope you enjoy!
This video was recorded 100% Live with NO REHEARSAL TIME. The band came prepared and we only had time to run through a couple musical solutions. It is our rendition of the Gospel song "Let it Rise", by William Murphy. This arrangement is shaped after Deitrick Haddon's version of the same song.
Every single sound was recorded live, exception made for the Organ, which I later overdubbed (the organ player couldn't be there for the Live Recording).
Here's the original video from the Abounding Grace Ministries page.

What an incredible version of Let It Rise! With the added bonus of hearing the MD. I've always wondered what that was like. Thanks! Holland Davis (writer of Let It Rise).
Means a lot coming from the writer!! Thank you for this beautiful song!
The fact you do transcriptions of what you are saying with explanations is absolutely amazing. Thank you!
This is an excellent live view of what the band director does during a song. The talk back mic is an essential part of this experience. I love the thought process you have in the captions as well. It gives a true and clear picture of what needs to happen.
The second lady from the right is giving Him praise! I love it!

Tbh the band was on autopilot the whole time, BUT need to know when to transition to the next line. It’s like memorizing sheet music you’ve never seen. Amazing skill!
Good Stuff!
Would like to have seen who’s on B3. Beautiful arrangement. Bless you guys.
On this one, the organ player couldn't be there during the recording. So I just ended up overdubbing the organ part my self after the live shoot.
I like the side chain
You’re awesome, how long have you been playing if you don’t mind me asking? Been almost 3 years for me
can you do tutorials for beginner key board players please?
What kind of talk box is that and how much is it my church band could really use one
Dang y'all be doing the dang thing! Praise God! Keep up the amazing work and worship. Do you have the chords available?
Can someone help us out
