GospelKeys 101...

Now In Less Than Hour, You Can Jump Start Your Piano Playing With These 3 Easy Steps!



Dear Friend,

Jermaine Griggs, the pioneer of the award-winning GospelKeys learning concepts, has come up with 3 simple steps so that you won't waste any time at all. In fact, it'll virtually cut your learning time in half! I copied and pasted the most important parts below so you can get a general idea.

HERE IT GOES...

Step One: Determining the Melody

Step Two: Harmonizing the Melody

Step Three: Adding the Bass


These three steps are not super complicated theories that require several years of experience. In fact, they were designed for the total beginner with absolutely no musical experience.

What most people don't understand is that most songs follow patterns. If you've been mistakenly learning songs, one by one, you're only exercising your ability to MEMORIZE chords --- and
that's exactly why it takes SO LONG to learn just one song.

BUT...

If you concentrate on LEARNING PATTERNS, you'll never go wrong because songs are built on repeating patterns. You should NEVER EVER have to memorize over 100 songs when they all share the same exact CHORDS, PROGRESSIONS, AND PATTERNS.


(...and if you're really serious about taking your piano playing to the next level, you might want to consider taking them up on their "Secrets to Learning Piano by Ear" 300 pg. course).


P.S. - You might find more interesting information, techniques, or resources just by clicking around on their website..

God bless,

"How Would YOU Like To Be Trained By One Of The Greatest Gospel Musicians & Producers Alive?"


http://www.hearandplay.com/jasonwhitepic.jpgMillions have heard his work all around the world and covet his style...

And never before Has Jason White, the musician-producer-extraordinaire behind artists like Donnie McClurkin, Judith McAllister, Carlton Pearson, Mary Mary, Daryl Coley, and Richard Smallwood, revealed his personal secrets to anyone...

UNTIL NOW!

And now YOU have the opportunity to benefit from his years DECADES of hard work, practice, and experience in this revolutionary 4.5 hour dvd course, GospelKeys "Ministry Musician" Volume 1.

Hey, if you've ever dreamed of looking over the shoulders of a gospel phenom, now's your chance as Jason White takes you through several hymns and how to contemporize them with "his" flavor, worship songs (from actual albums he's played on), old school shuffles, church "bebop," praise songs, choir music, and of course, shouting music!

If you keep reading this page, I guarantee that your gospel music playing will never be the same... and that's a promise!

I'm excited! Take me to the website!

In this course, here's just a few things you'll discover:

  • What it takes to truly be a Ministry Musician and how to avoid making some of the errors most church musicians make.

  • How to be admired by both "young" and "old" listeners by learning contemporary patterns with traditional hymns... without sacrificing the melody.

  • Borrow some of Jason's signature moves in worship, praise, shouting music, old school shuffle, "church bebop," hymns, and more! Never before has he sat down and given away his techniques and now you'll have "over-the-shoulder" access to one of the greatest gospel musicians alive!

  • How to take traditional songs everyone knows and alter certain chords to produce your very own flavor and style. In fact, you'll be taken by the hand and shown how to substitute chords in songs like "Oh How I Love Jesus," "To God Be The Glory," and others.

  • How to play some of the same exact licks you've heard Jason execute flawlessly on your favorite albums. I'm talking about records from artists like Richard Smallwood, Kurt Carr, Judith McAllister, West Angeles Church of God In Christ Choir, Daryl Coley, Mary Mary, and others!

  • The mindset of a "Ministry Musician" and how to avoid being a hindrance to your worship service by adhering to 5 simple rules.

  • The keys to accompanying a soloist. Your job as an accompanist is not to lead, it's to support. Learn Jason's improvement strategies when it comes to backing up singers, choirs, and groups!

  • Discover how to use the melody of ANY song to create chord voicings you never thought possible! Sometimes, the craziest chords come from using trial and error to find a chord that has the melody note on top. You'll learn Jason's system for doing this.

  • Connect chords together with unorthodox "slide-ups," "bends," "walk ups," "crossovers," and other techniques that nobody does! (That's why Jason commonly makes up his own names for the little nuances he utilizes in his playing that you can't find taught in your traditional music class).

  • Abolish those same old chords forever! Learn Jason's special voicings for major, minor, dominant, augmented, and various altered chords. You'll be amazed at how simple these voicings are once you know what you're doing!

  • And much more...

I'm excited! Take me to the website!

I know you'll enjoy what we have in store for you!

All the best,

"I thought that what I knew was the limit out there...

...I was wrong, because there are A LOT!"

<photopathalt>Hi, my name is Miguel A. Martinez. I started playing the keyboard when I was sixteen years old. Time had passed and I was not getting any better. The teacher that I had did not teach many chords or progressions. I really wanted to learn everything that there was to learn on the keyboard so I decided to go online and order whatever they had to offer for keyboard learners.

While I was searching for different sites to see which one was good, the HearandPlay website soon appeared. I started to look at it and read the information that it provided about how to learn to play keyboard by ear. That was what made me go into it even more.

It gave helpful video samples on what I would get after ordering the DVDs. Jermaine Griggs is good at playing the keyboard and I was really impressed on how much he knew about so many chords and progressions. I thought that what I knew was the limit of the variety of chords out there on the keyboard, but I was wrong because there are a lot more.

Since I first I got it, I'm still learning many things. As of right now, I know the scales and chords. Now I'm studying the different progressions. The virtual chord finder is great too. I really like it and use it every time I forget a certain chord. I still have lots to learn but I know that one day I will be really good and any song that I hear, I will be able to play it. Thank You Jermaine Griggs!!!

Your Brother in Christ,
Miguel A. Martinez
