Video Thursday: Japanese Swing Orchestra

Video of the Week

My cousin sent this video to me and just knew I would love it since I like Jazz
and used to listen to Benny Goodman tunes that my folks liked way back then.
These young kids play swing music with style! They've got rhythm and discipline!

A different song but same title, Sing, Sing, Sing by Chris Tomlin, is a good one!

E
We will sing, sing, sing
And make music with the heavens
    C#m7
We will sing, sing, sing
Grateful that you hear us
B
When we shout your praise
A                           E
Lift high the name of Jesus

E
What's not to love about you
Heaven and earth adore you
C#m7
Kings and kingdoms bow down
Son of God
B
You are the One
A
You are the One
               E
We're living for

E
You are the love that frees us
You are the light that leads us
C#m7
Like a fire burning
Son of God
B
You are the One
A
You are the One
                E
We're living for

How to Play an A5 Chord on Piano

By Rochelle Connery, eHow Contributor
 

If you're an intermediate or advanced pianist, you know that a chord is usually composed of at least three notes. The basic chord is made up of the first, third and fifth notes in a scale and can be inverted to create different sounds. However, an A5 chord uses only two notes, as does any basic fifth chord. The A5 chord is played using the first note of the scale, an A note, and the fifth note in a scale, the E note. You can play these in any order with the left or right hand.

A very popular worship song that can be used for background music is Sing Hallelujah. 

It's a good one to know for those special quiet times in church, like prayer or offering.
