How to Play This Is Gospel on Piano<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Overview of the Song<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

“This Is Gospel” comprises two distinct sections\u2014the verse and the chorus. The verse consists of four bars, each containing two chords repeated twice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The chorus consists of three bars, each with two chords repeated twice. Here are the chord progressions for each section:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Verse Chords: A\u266d – G\u266d, B\u266d – A\u266d, Cm – B\u266d, Dm – Cm<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Chorus Chords: Fm – E\u266d, Cm – B\u266d, A\u266d – G\u266d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Playing the Verse<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    The verse starts with a soft piano accompaniment in A\u266d major. From there, you’ll move into the first chord progression (A\u266d-G\u266d). To do this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Start by hitting all four keys in your left hand (A-E-B-F).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Add the notes from your right hand (C#-E on beat 1 <\/strong>and G-B on beat 2<\/strong>).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Keep repeating this pattern until you move on to the next chord progression (Bb-A), which follows the same pattern.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. When you reach the third chord progression (C minor-Bb), use your left hand to play all five keys (C-G#-D#-A#\/Bb-F) on beat one and all five keys again (C-G#-D#\/Eb-A#\/Bb-F) on beat two.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Switch back to your original chord progression for the last four bars and end with all four keys in your left hand plus C# and E in your right hand for a big finish.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Playing the Chorus<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      The chorus also starts with a soft piano accompaniment, but this time it’s in F minor instead of A flat major. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Move into the first chord progression (Fminor\u2013E-flat). To do this correctly, start by playing all five keys in your left hand plus C sharp and E flat in your right hand on beat one, then repeat this pattern on beat two. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      For the second chord progression (C minor\u2013B flat), use your left hand to play all five keys plus C sharp and E flat in your right hand on beats one and two, respectively. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Finally, switch back to F minor for the last four bars using the same pattern as before but end with only four keys in your left hand, plus C sharp and E flat for a strong finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
