Hi Johnny I've been learning from you for some time now but this particular lesson has made me send you a thank you comment so much information in under 15min genius thank you from teddy boy

[@DustyD-vv8xb]

I'm a guitar player seeking instruction on theory and harmony. Been playing professionally 35 years, always trying to learn something I can apply to my bag of tricks. I have watched a few of your videos and as much as possible applied it to guitar, which presents some wonderful challenges to my chord and voicing chops as well as spurred my imagination and creativity to new places. Great information, well articulated and immediately useful. Great teaching brother! Thank you.

No words to express what you've explained on this video!!! Amazing moment when you put extensions on dominant chords. Thanks for this lesson!!!!

[@tamaschernel4900]

What a great lesson Jonny, gospel is my all time favourite genre to play, those monster chords are just so cool. More and more and more gospel lessons plz. Huge thank you for you! Tom from Ireland.

[@jonathanwingmusic]

Wow, such a great and efficiently packed lesson. I love how you take it step-by-step in levels, so not only does it increase with difficulty but also we can see the logic of how ideas are built upon the previous ones and learn from that. Love those crunchy chords! Thanks Jonny

[@josefinrab.990]

Wow, this was exactly what I needed! Thank you sooo much❤

[@dpwaldman3145]

For me, this is fantastic and inspiring. And, the .pdf is included in my Piano with Jonny membership. Yayyyy!!!

[@LumadiBawono75]

Thks Johnny. This is nice straight forward and clear as daylight. It makes me understand more about Gospel, jazz & blues more. I Can't wait to try it out.

[@alessandrosantana3161]

Thank you, Jonny! I will use that tecnics at the church to night. 🇧🇷

[@JollyF.]

❤thanks Jonny, I love what you’re doing 🎶💃🏾

[@brendaboykin3281]

Thank you,Jonny🌹🌹🌹🌹

[@switch1e]

What’s your usual thought process for how you tend to voice your piano chords? Is there any particular reason you sequence the notes in a particular way? Thanks :)

[@davidgroth26]

Always the best, thanks Jonny.!

[@dbd5916]

Awesome!! So the slip 2 is a grace note??

[@Lawrence.31]

Amazing ! so interesting , i will use it on Georgia on my mind. Do u have any video of hit the Road Jack or any other ray charles' songs?

[@anthonysilva5312]

Lovely. As a guitarist, these “slip 2’s” are in our wheelhouse! Great lesson!

[@joss6218]

⭐️💯⭐️ Super awesome Detailed video... Thank You, I Loved the video. I so appreciate your passion and being informative.

[@drummermomcjs]

YOu make it look so easy. Great lesson, very informative. So simple yet so intricate. Thanks for the lesson Jonny.

[@JohannaDellaValle]

Jonny, please add country piano (keyboard) to your web-site.

[@PianoWithJonny]

Great suggestion!

[@sayonvertigo]

Very thanks master Johny 👍

[@cesarbustosp]

Gracias profesor

[@striverfor7628]

I - vi - IV - V Passing chords I - III - vi - I IV - V I - V Add 7ths Spread out the chord Add the slip 2 Slip off the 2nd note in the chord. Use the "slip note" on every 2nd chord. Add the Money Notes E13(b9) C9 G9(sus4) Put It All Together Bonus chord G7(b13, #9) To improvise over the progression, you can use the major blues scale. C-D-D#-E-G-A (can use it over all the chords). Scale spelling: I - ii - ii# - iii - V - vi.

[@JoseTorres-ft4xk]

Beautiful Jonny, Thank you. I've always done this prog. But not quite like this. Thank bro.

[@xxxxxxcccc7501]

Nice technique.....like it

[@bonnierumboll-harding6792]

Stunning!

[@PianoWithJonny]

Thank you!

[@ernestobautista6280]

Great lesson 😊

[@wchphoto]

This video has made me want to put my guitar away for a while and get back to tickling some keys! Thanks!

[@peterremke]

THANK YOU!

[@jeremyhuang96]

That was perfect, thanks ! I want more 😊

[@RobertJohnson-je6tx]

Awesome Jonny, thanks.

[@gerrynelsonmusic]

I was confused when you went from the basic progression to the passing chords. The basic is I vi IV V. Once you start inserting the 5 passing chords to the original progression, wouldn't it go to I III7 vi I IV II V before the cycle repeats?

[@amycrousore4021]

I also want to know this

[@caseychristian7186]

Is there a rule for when you use a major 7th and when you use a dominant 7?

[@PianoWithJonny]

In this video it's following the key signature.

[@rodneygardner1503]

Hi, Johny in step three when your spread notes how do know where to put them or spread them?

[@stellasitania1106]

Hi Johnny, do you have any tips to improvise the Hymn left hand?

[@amycrousore4021]

How do you know whether to play a dominant 7 or a major 7?

[@rebanelson607]

Very helpful lesson -thanks!

[@harrycaul2494]

Great video. Thank you. Lots of Stevie Wonder's 'Knocks me off my feet' chords on there. If you dont know it, check it out.

[@jamesjohnson2337]

Cool and crunchy? Thoughts here

[@jeffkoe310]

Going to the 5 chord from C is really the fourth in C. That’s confusing to me.

[@PianoWithJonny]

[@normalizedaudio2481]

Niko Lelasi calls out numbers to his Gospel band while they are playing.

[@yahmartay]

Why no passing chord F to G.

[@cb777-t1l]

Good stuff Jonny, as always, but C9---crunchy? Meh.

[@venusstefan918]

5:39 may be; C^7 ?😂❤

[@patrickpowell5430]

Why is everything ‘amazing’? If everything is, at he end of the day nothing is. If everything is special, nothing is because nothing stands out.

[@venusstefan918]

Nina Simone j wish j knew🎉😂❤

[@pgronemeier]

Sorry. This sounds like MAYBE 'piano bar jazz gospel' if there is a such thing. Or something CHICAGO would have recorded back in the 70's. J/s

[@boboscurse4130]

Is Jonny a Christian?

[@izio4408]

You lost me at the money notes

[@user-jv8kr4im1t]

Type in Chord extensions and alterations on Google. They happen a lot on guitar too. You might see something like D7b5, in this case you make a D7 chord n lower the fifth by a half step. It alters the D7 chord somehow, in this I think it's important to let the ear lead and theory follow. Here He's doing the same, alterations are more about what sounds good and voice leading imo. If you think of which note goes to where it's easier to get why alterations work But that's just for me. 🤷🏾‍♂️👌🏾 Good luck
