Music Is Fun!

I like music. That’s probably a good thing since a huge part of my work deals with music. I like good music. I like music that is well done. I like music.

I especially appreciate music when it is obvious that the person/people playing it are really enjoying what they are doing.

I came across the following video on one of the many blogs I read. We’ve all seen actors and professional artists having fun while doing music – sometimes for real and sometimes for the show. But I don’t think I’ve ever seen the amount of enjoyment and creativity going into a musical performance like is being done by this 26-year old conductor and the Venezuelan teens he is leading. The video is a bit long, but it’s worth it. The first piece is good, but the second piece is amazing.

Be inspired.

Do you enjoy what you do as you serve Christ, whether it’s music or something else?

iTouch and iWorship

If you ever find yourself needing to pull together a band, but don’t have any instruments, round up some iPod Touches and do what these guys did. Cool use of technology and very impressive, but not sure I could see pulling this off on a Sunday morning in most churches today. Enjoy!

(Thanks, Tyler.)
