Single-mic Recording w/the Rez Music Team

I really enjoyed capturing this performance with a single mic, moving the musicians around the mic to blend and balance them with distance rather than mixer faders, and the natural quality that it brought ( I also like the fact that I was able to use Dan (the guitarist/lead vocal) as a baffle between the snare and the mic). It was a fun night with some of my favorite musician friends!

Lamb of God

In our liturgy, we add the Lamb of God during the two penitential seasons of Advent and Lent just after the acclamation, “Christ our Passover has been sacrificed for us; therefore let us keep the feast!” It is found in the Gospel of John 1:29, when John the Baptist sees Jesus and is the first to name him as the anointed one. He also predicts Jesus’ death as the sacrificial lamb, the one who was born to die.

This setting repeats the phrase the traditional three times. It does differ in that it ends with another statement of the text “Lamb of God.” As I wrote this, I was so filled with gratitude for what Jesus has done for us, that I just wanted the last thing to be sung to be this beautiful name of Jesus, “Lamb of God.”
