This is a guided tour through music and arts coming from various Christian worship traditions around the world, plus a few other things of related interest such as multicultural musics.
Paperless Music for Holy Week
‘Paperless Music’ is one term in English for songs primarily taught through oral methods, without a focus on staring at the written score.
Scott Weidler wrote a blog post last year with suggested songs for Holy Week.

He highlights 4 particular songs, with video links. These are excerpted from his blog post.
Learn a joyous, three-part ‘Hosanna’ taught by Holly Phares.
Watch Debbie Lou Ludolph teach 'Between Darkness and Light.’
Hear Lindsey Nye lead her original song, 'Have You Died Before.’
Feel the joy of resurrection as Nancy Boldt McLaren teaches 'In Christ We Live.’
Here’s the 3-min video for the last song which I like a lot:
