Title: Need some help : Elijah Rock - Joshua Nelson
Post by: pavomeko on December 29, 2012, 09:01:37 AM
Hello everybody,

I hope you're doing good !


That's my very first post on this forum.

I don't really play the piano but I'm so excited by learning to play and sing a few gospel songs, that I find do powerful and full of faith.

To be concise : I'd like to find the tabs or, even better, the tutorial video of the way to play Joshua Nelson's "Elijah Rock" version.

You can watch the video on this link : http://youtu.be/h1Ov-ZbzNRY (http://youtu.be/h1Ov-ZbzNRY) (by the way, I've watched it hundreds of time^^ - JUST LOVE IT)

The sound is not very clear and bright but I'm sure, you guys with your super ears can manage that.

Could someone help me ? That would be so nice !


Greetings from Switzerland  :)

Paul

Welcome to LGM, pavomeko!

Here's a version by Mahalia Jackson - Mahalia Jackson Elijah Rock (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AK8iMXq3cg8#)

And a more classically-oriented Jester Hairston arrangement of this Spiritual for womens' choir - Elijah Rock - Jester Hairston (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4rxBb_ddSI#)

I've attached a PDF sheet music scan I found of his acappella SSATB arr. It's in G minor, the same key that Joshua Nelson sings it in.
