  • @musictrainingonline
    @musictrainingonline ปีที่แล้ว +31

    I find it very interesting how similar this is to jazz harmony. What you describe as passing chords are secondary dominant chords that can indeed be inserted between every chord change, something jazz guys do all day. Maybe the real difference between jazz progressions and gospel progressions is the use of inversions and color tones. But more than anything it is the feel and phrases you are using. Lovely lesson!

    • @adam-fu9di
      @adam-fu9di 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      I'm a fairly advanced jazz pianist and even though I'm familiar with the devices used here, the way things are played are a tad foreign to me. There's an aesthetic all this gospel playing has. A lot of grace notes, a lot of drop 2 triads. Alot of what I would call rudimentary (not to mean simple) structures that are skilfully embellished. ie.. 4-5-1 is never played using those bass notes. You will always see things like the 3rd and 5th used in the bass along with passing diminished and secondary dominants.

    • @chrisdavis2161
      @chrisdavis2161 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      ^^^^this guys is extremely accurate...
      being a jazz player approaching gospel music, you end up sounding very basic even while using advanced subs, and altered chords because Jazz harmony... while it can reach the point of utter nonharmonic and arhythmic pipe dreams...it is still more structured than modern contemporary gospel harmony... at least from my perspective. guys like Cory Henry come to mind

    • @spindriftdrinker
      @spindriftdrinker 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thinking about origins - it wouldn't surprise me if many of the ragtime composers (one of the precursors to modern jazz) also played in church. So you might expect some similarities. I don't know - might be worth researching.

    • @musictrainingonline
      @musictrainingonline 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@spindriftdrinker We also need to remember that passing chords have been a part of Western Music Harmony since the 17th century. They were not invented in church. Gospel and jazz are both based on the same old harmonic concepts, but evolved dramatically into something that creates a very different and to me a much more exciting listening experience. It is just fascinating how evolution works.

    • @thegiftedhandsmusic
      @thegiftedhandsmusic  ปีที่แล้ว

      That's a great question...for embellishments bass players don't need to change the fundamental note they're playing since the function of the harmony isn't changing.
      As far as passing chords go, if the keyboardist is going to throw in tons of passing chords or substitutions it's best to discuss it with the band and agree on what the changes will be so everyone can be on the same page.
