From: Jermaine A. Griggs

Dear Gospel Musician,

This won't be long. In fact, I'm going to get right to the point because what I'm about to share with you is going to literally change the way you play worship music forever...

   ... Before I introduce you to my good friend (who I call "Mr. H"),  click some of the sound files below to hear what you're going to learn by reading this page.

   This is not classic gospel (... don't get me wrong because I love my gospel "classics").

   This is not traditional gospel (I love my traditional, old-fashioned songs as well). There is a time and place for all styles of gospel music.

   This is contemporary urban worship-styled gospel. And after hearing my friend Mr. H, you'll agree that there is definitely something unique about this style of playing...

 
"Oh Come Let Us Adore Him"
(Urban Contemporary Style):
* You may have to turn off audio from the tutorial at the top of this page
 
"Oh Mighty God"
(Urban Contemporary Style):
 
 
* You may also listen to these song examples and many more at the top of this page by navigating through the interactive tutorial presentation.

 

Who Should Be Interested In Learning the "Urban & Contemporary" Worship Style?

* All musicians playing in modern churches...
 
* Musicians playing for youth and young adult choirs who tend to sing modern and contemporary songs...
 
* Musicians who seek to "contemporize" the way they play gospel music...
 
* Musicians who feel they play "old fashioned" and want to learn new voicings and chord progressions...
 
* Any musician desiring to learn more gospel "licks" and "tricks" on the keyboard!
 
* Musicians committed to lifelong learning, no matter what style of music.
 

What is Urban & Contemporary Worship?

Many musicians desire the "contemporary & urban" vibe that is heard in much of today's gospel music. This style is a combination of gospel, jazz, and R&B all combined into one.

Remember: Gospel, Jazz, and R&B all "borrow" chords from the same pool. You'll learn how to combine certain jazz runs with gospel chord progressions.

This is what you hear in about 80% + of modern gospel songs...

  

"Mr. H" has agreed to share his Contemporary Urban gospel music techniques with the HearandPlayTM Community. Listen...

     I rarely recommend people to my audience simply because I've seen all the many types of "resources" out there. Some just show you "chords" without any further direction. Other resources spend more time preparing you for playing than teaching you HOW TO PLAY!

    But when my friend, Mr. H, called and asked me to view his newest 2-hour DVD course on "Contemporary Urban Worship," I took him up on it. And boy, I'm glad I did!

   From the professionalism of the DVD cover to the graphics, from the many keyboard and midi displays on the screen to the background vocalists, I was certainly impressed. But those things didn't matter to me as much as this:

In two hours, he managed to squeeze in so much content... so many contemporary and urban chords... so many fill-ins... so many techniques and principles that I literally stopped my DVD player, called him on the phone, and asked him how I could get this information into the hands of my students as fast as possible.

... And after days of talking, I was able to get a "HEAR AND PLAY ONLY" package created that included two jam-packed hours of instructional footage PLUS a number of BONUS ITEMS that'll be sure to enhance your learning experience.

The only catch is that he was only able to ship me 500 "HEAR AND PLAY ONLY" copies, which means that this website will only be available until those 500 copies are sold.

Because I am offering so many bonuses items along with this "GospelKeys X - Urban and Contemporary Worship" course, I expect to be sold out shortly (certainly by ...)

  

Are you ready for all this? Here's what we're going to show you:

How to play urban and contemporary worship patterns in Ab that'll have people turning their heads the minute you sit down to the piano.

How to manipulate the major 7th chord to make your playing sound urban and contemporary like today's gospel songs.

The secret behind using the Circle of Fifths to your advantage when applied to contemporary worship piano playing. This one is a must.

Worship movements in Ab that other musicians don't want you to know! Learn famous chordal movements that form the basis of urban and contemporary worship music --- once you understand this, you're piano playing will never be the same.

Learn "licks" and "tricks" in F#. These are tricks that you can begin adding to your musical toolbox the minute you pop in these DVDS! After hearing some of these contemporary runs, your family and friends will know you've been up to something... I PROMISE!

Discover the KEY PRINCIPLES behind Ab runs (upward and downward movements). If you're not playing these runs, then you're definitely in for a treat.

Learn how to drive the worship service. This is known as Warfare and High Praise moments of the service (especially during the prophetic).

Dive into various worship vamps like "Lord I Worship You, I Worship You." These examples are geared towards teaching you how to play the vamps of tons of other contemporary worship songs.

Discover the hidden secrets behind "pretty-ending chords." The ending of a song is just as important as the beginning. Learn how to end your songs the right way!

How to implement "Disney" sounding chords into your gospel piano playing! Yes, I said "Disney." These techniques will blow you away!

Delve into classical movements in Eb! Just when you thought the DVD only focused on modern playing --- Learn classical progressions that can be applied to your gospel playing ASAP.

Learn real-life songs along with real-life vocalists!

... and much much more!

 

Gospel Meets Technology:

I was literally blown out of my chair when I saw these things...


F.L.A.V.A. (Fundamental Learning and Visual Assistance)

It is psychologically proven that cognition and learning increases with the increase of positive reinforcements.

 

GospelKeys X - "Contemporary and Urban Worship" (by Mr. H) is jam-packed with tons of visual learning tools aimed at helping you to learn and remember every chord taught.

 

The interface has been reworked and positioned such that it maximizes your visual experience. The learning interface consists of a front view of the instructor in the middle of the screen, with visual stimuli on all four sides of the screen.

 

So learning with F.L.A.V.A makes the learning experience considerably easier, thus enhancing chord retention (... basically, you're going to be able to remember what you learn)...!

 


 

M.R.T. (Multiple Reinforcement Technology)

 

Not only are there cameras right above the keyboard, but there is a virtual keyboard displayed on the screen so that you can see the keys lit up as they are played!

 

Regardless of how well a camera is positioned over the top of the keys, sometimes it is difficult to see every single note because of shadows, lighting, awkward positions, and simply fingers being in the way! As a result, you'll benefit from a virtual keyboard that lights up keys as they are played (in conjunction with the overhead view in the lower region of the screen).

 

 

L.M.S. (Live Midi Sync)

 

Live MIDI Sync is a process we developed that syncs live playing and MIDI together and displays it on the virtual keyboard in real-time!. So as the keys are played, they are also lit up on the virtual keyboard in sync with every chord, scale, and movement!

 

Translation: You see exactly what's going on and you never miss a beat! Live MIDI sync also allows us to give you the MIDI files of every song so that you can learn each selection on your own as well (see bonus items below).

 


 

Live Singing

This project wouldn't of been complete without a singer/psalmist to demonstrate to you how a contemporary gospel musician effectively follows a soloist or worship leader. ... So whether you know the gospel songs being covered or not, Jason Champion, the featured psalmist, will introduce you to a number of contemporary worship classics and songs in a gospelish-soulful way!

Special Bonus #8 Opportunity:
You'll Also Get 3 FREE  "Monthly Music Mentor"
Courses Just For Trying This Program...

     As a very special one-time bonus, I'd also like to send you three free courses from my Monthly Music Mentor CD of the month program.

     The Monthly Music Mentor program is aimed at teaching you everything you need to know to play piano in the quickest and easiest way possible. Just as it sounds, this program was designed to take you by the hand and "mentor" you step-by-step through the musical process of playing by ear. If you lack time and want to make the best of the limited time you have, you're going to love what these monthly cd lessons will do for you.

https://secure.hearandplay.com/mmm2/images/cds.jpg     Here's how it works: Order now, and I'll throw in a one-month FREE subscription to my Monthly Music Mentor program - PLUS you'll get three free Monthly Music MentorTM introductory courses, which provide an incredible introduction to the ongoing training... and you'll get all this just for trying this program.

     The three courses you'll receive are "Piano By Ear For Starters" 2-hour course, "How To Find The Key To Any Song" 80-minute course, and the first Monthly Music Mentor introductory CD (80-minute "Getting Started" program). All of this is worth $79.95 but yours free as a bonus today.

     I'm so sure you're going to love Monthly Music Mentor courses that I'm even going to pay the additional priority SHIPPING cost to send the starter kit to you.

     If you love the three starter courses (which you will), keep them and stay subscribed to the program. Every month, I'll send you a new lesson on CD, and you'll automatically be charged only $15.95 a month... which is roughly just a quarter of what one private lesson would cost you... and you can't rewind live lessons). You can cancel anytime you want with no questions or hassles. If you cancel before 30 days, you won't be billed at all.

The Three Courses Are Your Gifts
To Keep Either Way...

     If you get these 3 courses and you DON'T love them and get IMMEDIATE success with the material you learn, you can cancel and keep all the courses FOR FREE... just for TRYING it. In other words, you get to keep all the material for free either way... even if you cancel right after you get it.

     This bonus is worth at least $79.95 alone, and it's yours free just for trying this program --- but this special free offer is only available with your purchase right now.

***If you prefer NOT to get this free $79.95 bonus package, you can "opt out" with one click while ordering... and simply complete your order without the free bonus and 30-day trial. Your choice. It's that easy.



"OK. I'm going to make this really good..."

       If you're truly serious about modernizing your gospel style (updating your chord voicings, finding newer progressions to play, adding jazzy runs to your piano playing, etc...), then you'll definitely want to be one of the next 150 musicians to take me up on this incredible offer.

      Not only am I dropping the price of this dvd course a considerable amount, but if you order today, I will also throw in the EIGHT additional bonus items (worth over $197.90 by themselves)  that will allow you to catch every single word of this 2-hour course, on the screen, right there in front of you (as well as midi files, pdf guides, and free software)!

       Plus, you'll get the additional 3 Monthly Music MentorTM courses valued at $79.95. So you're not only getting 2+ hours of step-by-step dvd footage on contemporary urban worship music but an additional 4.5 hours of audio training in free bonuses. Then there's the ongoing support --- what else could you possibly ask for?

     For all of this, I could very well charge over $200.00 and still get tons of orders for the 2-hour training disc and EIGHT bonus items. With the bonuses valued at $197.90 alone and the DVD instruction valued at $69.95, EVEN that price would be well discounted.

But I'm not going to charge you $200.00 even though that's what this course is worth. I'm not going to charge you $100 --- I'm not even going to charge you more than $70 for this incredible package because I want as many people as possible to take advantage of this awesome information at an affordable price.

For just 2 easy monthly payments of $35, this entire GospelKeysTM X Series plus all of the bonuses (8 total)  can be yours. This offer is subject to change at any time so if you're really interested in this dvd course, I suggest you act quickly --- otherwise, you might end up paying close to $200.00 or more in the future. Even worse, you may be too late and not be able to take advantage of the EIGHT BONUSES. These "add-ons" are worth the cost of the course by themselves.

Even though the price is extremely affordable (about the cost of two or three tickets to a local movie along with a few cartons of popcorn and snacks), here's what's really important. If this program was just another useless course that just sat in your bookshelf and didn't teach you anything new, it wouldn't matter what the price was. IT WOULDN'T BE WORTH ONE PENNY.

I don't release many courses. But when I do, I want to make sure that you're getting back in information and helpful resources & tools at least two to three times what you invest. That is always my goal and  I sincerely believe this is one of the best values you'll ever come across.

Jermaine Griggs, President

 

If you can learn just 20 new worship songs, chords, arrangements, tricks, fill-ins, and "runs", what is that actually worth to you? If you'll finally be able to play for your church like you've been desiring to (in a contemporary urban way), what is this course worth to you?

I can't put an exact dollar figure on it for you --- only you can do that. But I can tell you this: at 2 monthly payments of $35, this program could very possibly be the best bargain and the best investment you'll ever make in terms of your musical growth.
