Starting with the basic lead sheet, you’ll discover how to color the chords for a jazzier sound, add a gospel groove in the left hand, and embellish the melody with slides, tremolos & harmonies. You’ll also learn a stock gospel intro you can use on various gospel tunes along with easy improv techniques using the gospel scale.
