Description
What is the ONE tool those advanced pianists use to achieve that “Gospel Sound?”PASSING CHORDS!Yes, that’s correct. Passing Chords are the most powerful tool for modern Gospel pianists, and YOU can also achieve that sound. In this course, I have identified the seven most used passing chords in Gospel music, and I teach it all in the key of C.By the end of this course, you will learn about these seven types of passing chords: 2-5-1, Minor Chromatic, Diminished Chromatic, Secondary Dominant, First Inversion, and Tritone Substitution. You will not only master advanced chords, but you’ll also learn all those movements you hear the other guys play but never could wrap your head around what they’re doing. All those movements are revealed, and NOTHING is held back; I lay it all on the “table” in the key of C.In this course, I also demonstrated all these passing chords on ten popular worship songs and hymns – so you’re learning “practical passing chords,” not just theory “stuff” that has no practical application during service.This is the course I wish I had when I started playing for my church. If you’re serious about taking your worship passing chords to the next level, this is the course you MUST have.
