Dear Gospel Musician,

Have you ever wondered how some musicians can use the same type of chords as you but sound ridiculously better?

How they can sit behind the keys with ease, producing dazzling chords and movements without even looking down at their hands?

Heck, they're so good that half of the church attends mainly to listen to the music (yes, I know, that's bad)... but that's another story.

But if you're like most musicians, what probably baffles you the most is how they have the same access to all the chords you use but somehow flip them to sound significantly better.

(The reason you know they're using similar chords is because there aren't that many different ways to start "Amazing Grace" --- you're just wondering how they manage to get their major chords to sound so good).

Well... you're not alone.

As the #1 "music by ear" website online, we receive millions upon millions of visitors every year looking for advice on playing their favorite instruments... and over half of them are gospel musicians.

But what amazes me the most is the overwhelming amount of e-mails all saying the same thing...

 

Are these your questions too?

 

"Do you want to hear the good news
 or the bad news first?"

 

Okay, let's start with the bad news.

The bad news is that your suspicions are right!

There is something extra going on in the piano playing of the big-time musician. Something, that if everyone knew, would make these musicians not-so-special anymore.

But worse than the bad news that your suspicions are right is the fact that these big-time musicians don't want you to know their secrets and will avoid your solicitations for help in anyway they can (just think about the last time you asked someone for help... were they as open to help you?).

And if you've gotten help from someone, then congratulations! You're around a musician who is not concerned with you being as good as them and taking their job. Too bad, most musicians don't think that way.

Usually they'll say...

 

"YOU'VE ALREADY GOT IT" or "YOU ALREADY KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING" or the infamous "PSHHH, I NEED TO TAKE LESSONS FROM YOU!"

 

These are just polite ways of saying, "I'm sorry but I figured these secrets out on my own so you'll have to do the same."

And If you've had it happen to you, then you already know how it feels... like a door being slammed in your face.

 

So YES, there are some secrets out there that can propel you to the next level. In fact, they're the type of secrets that don't even take that much practice. Most of them are instant.

Just think about it? If they were really hard to pick up, the big-time musicians wouldn't mind sharing them because they know you wouldn't be able to apply them any time soon (or at all, for that matter).

But this is not the case. Most of them are instant things you can apply to your playing right away.

You learn them and they will have an immediate impact.

(Imagine being able to apply one thing to your playing that makes you sound 100% better overnight... just imagine that.)

I don't know about you but if I could get my hands on just one technique that has the potential to revolutionize the way I play, then it's worth me reading every word on this page.

That's the kind of stuff I'm talking about and that is the good news that I'm about to reveal to you.

You can learn and apply the secrets I'm going to share and sound astonishing overnight.

 

"We're revealing THE Secret
whether they like it or not!"
 

Rather than talk about a bunch of unrelated techniques that you can apply to your playing, I want to be extremely focused on the ONE thing you can do to have instant success.

Wouldn't you appreciate that more than 40 things you have to worry about to sound better?

And if you're like our other students, you're looking for that EDGE but you don't necessarily want to wait months and years to get it.

Well, I'm here to let you know that what you've been looking for is called the "TRITONE."

It is the ONE SECRET that connects every "big name" gospel musician together.

They all know what it is. Heck, they've even learned how to manipulate it so much that it can literally evoke any kind of emotion when used properly.

And what it all boils down to is their ability to find unique ways to use this secret in musical situations at church that most gospel musicians can't begin to fathom.

And now you're probably starting to figure out why the big-time musicians don't want you to know about the tritone and its many functions.

Why? Because the tritone secrets I'm going to reveal to you (that no one else wants to share) produces the hottest sound to ever hit contemporary gospel music... hands down.

And to be quite honest, it hasn't always been accepted by the church. Several hundred years ago, its sound would have been classified as the "devil's music."

Today, it is the most commonly used "secret" in contemporary worship music.
 

Warning: Most gospel musicians think they know how to use this secret but they've only employed a fraction of its true power.

 

"But how is this so-called SECRET different
than other things I'm learning?"

 

While other resources of ours have featured the tritone, it's never been the core focus.

Never before have we taken the tritone and spent a whopping 2 hours ripping it apart... literally dissecting it and giving you countless ways to incorporate it in your playing.

And when you see the power of the tritone, you will agree that it is certainly the hidden gem in gospel music.

It's only two notes but when you play a tritone on your left hand with certain chords on your right, it has a magical way of creating a totally different sound that each of the chords fail to produce on their own.

Like salt, when you combine a tritone with certain chords on your right hand, it brings out the flavor in the chord.

So if you lack flavor, the tritone is your seasoning salt.

And like I said, tritones are so easy to play. THEY ARE WHAT THEY ARE.

It's when you use them to spice up other chords and in various situations that they produce the contemporary sounds you hear from today's top gospel musicians.

 

"Can I really WATCH and LEARN what it
has taken others years to attain?"

 

The short answer is a resounding YES!

 

Over 51,275 people from over 53 Countries have already relied on our courses and resources to learn how to play the piano by ear. Many of them have since gone on to play in bands, churches, special events and more (as shown in their testimonials)! HearandPlay.com currently serves more than 271,364 online subscribers and supplies over 1,500,000 visitors (that's ONE AND HALF MILLION PEOPLE) per year with online piano lessons, newsletters, and more! Click here to see a screen shot of my website statistics. Thousands of them now play the piano for their churches, special events (weddings, celebrations, ceremonies, parties ... and the list goes on) and even assist in directing the choir. These secrets will open up unimaginable doors... believe me, I use them myself!

 

I know these numbers of musicians we've helped around the world sound big but I've even shared the secrets you're about to learn in depth with a few of my closest students and each and every one of them has been blown away by these practical techniques.

Not just because these techniques instantly expanded their playing but because they were so easy to incorporate, yet only the big-time musicians use them in such ways.

We've decided this for a couple of reasons. 1) Our agreement only lasts for one year. 2) We want the value of this insider information to remain very high and in demand and if we oversaturate the market with these secrets, well, the truth is... THEY WON'T BE SECRETS ANYMORE! Plus, having a limited quantity in circulation rewards those who are serious enough to take action now to change their musical realities and penalizes those who procrastinate and leave their growth up to chance (if I may be blunt).   So if you're ready to be on of the 1,000 gospel musicians who come on this journey with me, read below to find out exactly what you'll be getting.   GospelKeys Tritone Xtravaganza 2-hour Dvd Course is broken into 12 lessons and will explore everything you need to know to start using tritones the day you receive it in the mail.

($29.95 Value) You can never get lost with this course because we also feature every example that's introduced in the dvd on the documentation cd-rom that you'll simply pop into your computer! Not only can you listen to the midi files over and over again but with the use of the free interactive midi player we include, you can also slow down the examples, change their major keys, and see the notes being played right on your computer screen! There are 12 lessons in all and you'll get complete midi files for all of them! This is the ultimate self-study tool as you'll be able to slow an example down to 20% of its actual speed. Then, when you're ready to learn the same example in a new key, you simple slide the lever up a notch and the sound and piano notes move up before your eyes!   And if that isn't enough...   "You'll Never Miss A Note With The On-Screen Virtual Keyboard..."   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 section so that you can learn each part on your own as well (as described above). Note: You must order today to guarantee that you get these bonuses.   Xtravagant Bonus #2 "For those who sight read: Sheet music of all tritone and chord examples" ($13.95 Value) Just to make sure you don't miss a single note, we're including all the same examples from the course on sheet music!

Between the dvd instruction itself, the midi file player, and the on-screen virtual keyboard, you're well covered! Note: You must order today to guarantee that you get these bonuses.   Xtravagant Bonus #3 "Bonus Clips on using both tritones and ditones from a Live Student Demonstration Session" ($19.95 Value) Watch as Jamal reveals his tritone and ditone secrets to a student LIVE on stage! You'll get a front row seat as he passes his extensive knowledge of contemporary playing on to a dedicated student! Short sample clip   Plus, I'm throwing in this online bonus... Xtravagant Online Bonus #4 "Two Live Follow-Up Training Sessions" ($39.95 Value)   Thanks to new technology, we've employed a service that allows us to have live events online. It's called a webcast. Actually, the better term for it is a "simulcast" because it allows participants to either call in on a phone using a special number or listen online by simply clicking a button and turning up their computer speakers. The first 300 people will get to join this live session for free. You'll get a virtual front-row seat to enter our "online classroom" environment where you can ask questions with the click of a button (by simply typing and submitting to our "Question & Answer" queue) and much more. In 2005, I held 7 teleclasses (we didn't have this new technology so every participant had to call in back then) that ranged from $19.95 to $29.95 each. You won't have to pay a dime for these training sessions if you're the first 300 to reserve your course. That's $40 in online classes for free! Session topics: 1) "How to guarantee your success with GospelKeys Tritone Xtravaganza!" 1 hour. Wednesday, March 12, 2008, 3PM Pacific. Recording of entire event will be available in the online classroom for an unlimited amount of time. 2) "Left Hand Tritone Secrets Revealed!" 1 hour. Wednesday, March 19, 2008, 3PM Pacific. Recording of entire event will be available in the online classroom for an unlimited amount of time.   That's a combined total of $103.80 in bonuses just for taking action today.   So...   "What is it worth to get your hands  on this ENTIRE package?"   Flat out, this package is worth well over $200. We're talking about 2 hours of step-by-step instruction, midi files, software, sheet music, live training sessions, and more! And heck... compared to hiring a piano teacher at $30-$40 per lesson (and that's only for a 30-minute session), you will have spent that in no time! But here's the thing... What you learn in our comprehensive course can never be taught by a conventional piano teacher so even if your budget allowed for private instruction, you would waste time learning things you don't want to know. You'll be lucky if, after your 20th lesson, you've moved on to play more than basic nursery rhymes and folk songs. Because this is "school of hard knock" kind of information! It comes from being in the trenches (or having someone teach you who has been there). It's not traditional. You can't learn this stuff at a university, even if you forked over thousands of dollars in tuition fees. This is specialized knowledge that only a privileged few know --- and now you have the opportunity to join the inner circle.   As stated above, the package sells for $200. The bonuses, alone, are worth over $100. But because this course has just released, I'm offering a special National Introductory Price for a limited time only.   For just $49.99, this entire 2-hour GospelKeys Tritones Xtravaganza package plus the bonus documentation cd-rom, midi files, sheet music, bonus footage, and training sessions can be yours. This National Introductory Price is subject to change at any time (so if you're really interested in this gospel music learning system, I suggest you act quickly --- otherwise, you might end up paying well over $100 or $200 in the future). Even worse, you may be too late and not able to take advantage of this offer at all. Click here if you're ready to order this 2-hour package for just $49.99 through our online secure server   Even though the price is extremely affordable (about the same cost of a few cables for your keyboard), here's what's really important. If this Tritone Xtravaganza series was just another 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 SILVER PENNY. On the other hand, if you can learn just ONE thing that revolutionizes your playing, it's worth its weight in gold. There is no other form of learning that can give you what I'm offering for just $49.99.   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.
