Great Gospel Flavor for your Jazz Playing - Peter Martin | 2 Minute Jazz

Peter Martin demonstrates one easy technique to add some gospel flavor to your jazz playing.===================================================What's going on everybody? Peter Martin here for 2 Minute Jazz Piano. I want to show you one concept for adding in some gospel flavor into your jazz playing today.So many great ways that we can do this, but we can just add one at a time, give a little hint of the gospel vibe, I think it works well.So we're in the key of G and if we're playing jazz, say like a ballad.(pleasant piano music)And we're going from G Major, the I chord up to the IV chord we might move with those kind of voicings, so like G Major, A Minor, B flat Diminished, B Minor, and then to the C Major. I'm just gonna put one kind of gospel-tinged change in there. Okay, did you hear that? We can go G Major, A Minor7, and then instead of B Minor, I went to B7#9 Flat 13. Okay?So of course when I add the whole gospel feel, you really hear that but even in jazz, like if it was a ballad. Just a kinda cool way toput a little bit of gospel in your jazz playing, alright? So I hope you have fun with that. Peace, happy practicing.====================================================For more lessons like this with Peter Martin, head on over to Open Studio www.openstudionetwork.com/piano See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
