When to Use 9ths, 11ths, and 13ths Chords in Gospel Piano

In this video, I break down how to choose the right chord extensions—such as 9ths, 11ths, and 13ths, along with their altered forms (♭9, ♯9, ♯and 11)—when playing dominant 7th chords.

I also share my method of learning extensions through transcription, imitation, and listening, just like learning a new language.
