My father is a board member of his Jewish temple. The temple wants to step up the music from the usual solemn organ music to something more contemporary sounding. They have a wonderful organist, but no arrangements of the Jewish service music.

Naturally, I recommended Biab, knowing the popularity of the program within the worship community.

Does anyone know the answers to the following questions?

1)Are there any Jewish service music fake books for Biab? (I know it's a longshot!)

2)Are there any video tutorials that would help this organ player see how Biab would work in a worship application (perhaps a video that shows how to create a service song from scratch that would accompany her organ)

Like most people, the organ player has not used this type of software, so the more basic the tutorial, the better. She is non midi, so 2010 would make all the sense in the world. I think just the mention of midi might lead her to convert to a more audio based religion!!!

Thanks for any help you can give.

Moo,

My late father-in-law was the music director for his Catholic Church. He used a program, which I think was called minus one, something to that effect. The music was already installed in its hardware. If I remember correctly, he could pre-program the songs for each service and all he had to do was hit the play button and sing along. I believe they were midi files with the midi synth built in?

I think it was called music minus one? Since their hardware was geared toward church music, I assume they will also have a Jewish Music version?

You could also contact your local Jewish Temple/Church and see how they do their music?

Btw, they DO make Jewish fakebook(s). Type in Jewish Music in MSN and the first page it hits on are the fakebooks.
