Ninth Chords Demystified: When and How to Use Them for a Full, Gospel Sound

Ninth Chords Demystified: When and How to Use Them for a Full, Gospel Sound

In this video, I dive into the art of transforming a classical sound into a soulful gospel style, focusing on techniques like ninth chords, grace notes, phrasing, and musical accents to bring out that authentic, bluesy feel. As a classically trained musician myself, I understand the challenge of “sounding too square” despite playing the same chords as gospel players. Here, I demonstrate how accents, rhythmic swinging, and specific voicings (like adding a ninth to major and dominant chords) can completely reshape your sound. Whether you're playing gospel, jazz, or CCM, these techniques help you capture that soulful, expressive vibe.
