Now we're going to focus on some of the most common progressions in gospel music. We are going to break them up into three notes per group and each group will start with the same root note. So that we are all on the same page lets begin with the Db major scale, so Db will be the root note (the "1")
For this lesson we're going to work with two groups. Group one is: 1-7-6 and group two is: 1-4-5. I want you to play group one for a minimum of 10 minutes a day. Don't just play it but listen to the group of notes as a whole. Come up with your own rhythm, feel, tempo etc...
Then work on group two for a minimum of 10 minutes a day. Don't just play it but listen to it as a whole and come up with your own rhythm, feel, tempo etc..
Remember we are not going to rush this, ear training takes time to master and we are going to master it one step at a time. In a few days I'm going to post some songs with the : 1-7-6 and the 1-4-5 progression and" YOU WILL BE ABLE TO HEAR THE PROGRESSIONS LOUD AND CLEAR"...only if you put in the work.
PS: on the 1-7-6 progression I want you to play the low 7 and 6.
