The Secret Gospel Modulation That Instantly Makes You Sound Better

Have you ever heard a gospel musician suddenly jump to another key and it just sounds powerful and intentional?

In this livestream, I’m breaking down one of the secret modulation techniques gospel musicians use all the time — the Minor 3rd Modulation.

This powerful move shows up in countless gospel songs and can instantly make your playing sound more advanced, expressive, and musical.

In tonight’s lesson we will:

🎹 Examine 3 gospel songs that use the minor 3rd modulation
🎹 Break down the theory and harmonic strategy behind it
🎹 Show how to apply this modulation in your own playing

Once you understand this concept, you’ll start hearing it everywhere in gospel music.
