Playing Gospel Chords On Your Piano To Make Songs Come To Life!

Many people have asked me over the years to teach them “gospel chords” and “jazz chords”.  Chords are chords, no matter what the song or context, and while it’s true that most gospel music uses  lots of dominant 7th chords, while most jazz uses more complex chords, they are still just chords – groups of notes played at the same time (or close to the same time). A lot of the sound you get from either gospel or jazz is in the touch – grace notes and blue notes added. But at the same time, we can generalize and teach some basic chord structures for both. Watch the video and you’ll get the idea.
