Advanced Gospel Reharmonization (Mind-Blowing Technique)

Sep 19, 2026  #11

Have you ever wondered how professional gospel musicians can play the same melody but make it sound completely different every time?

Tonight we're diving into one of my favorite advanced reharmonization concepts:

Changing the FUNCTION of the melody note.

Instead of always treating the melody as the root or the obvious chord tone, you'll learn how to hear that same note as the:

• 3rd
• 5th
• 7th
• 9th
#11
• 13th

Once you understand this concept, you'll begin hearing completely new harmonies hiding underneath melodies you've played for years.

In this live training we'll cover:

🎹 Why most musicians get stuck reharmonizing
🎹 How to reinterpret a melody note
🎹 Building multiple chords beneath the same melody
🎹 Gospel examples you can immediately use in worship
🎹 How to practice this concept until it becomes natural

Bring your keyboard and be ready to think differently.

I'll see you live!
