------------------------------------------------------------------------ Online Classroom: "How to Add Bigger 3-6-2-5-1 Progressions to your Songs!" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Note: You might want to print this lesson out for easier reading....
The "3-6-2-5-1" progression is common in gospel music and creates a distinct sound. In this month's classroom lesson, I am going to share with you a few of my favorite "3-6-2-5-1" progressions and how to use them in your gospel music.
Like every other progression we've learned, this one simply adds on to the "6-2-5-1" progression from March. In fact, the "3" chord simply pulls us towards the "6-2-5-1 progression.
So it is safe to say that any "6-2-5-1" chord progression with the addition of the "3" chord can be transformed into a "3-6-2-5-1" progression.
First, I want to explore "3" chords that will actually pull us towards our "6-2-5-1" progression. Let's explore the following chords:
(In the key of Db major):
D major scale = Db - Eb - F - Gb - Ab - Bb - C - Db
1)
F7 (#9#5)
Left hand = F * Right hand = A + Db + Eb +Ab
2)
F7 (b9#5)
Left hand = F * Right hand = A + Db + Eb + Gb
3)
Dmaj / F
Left hand = F * Right hand = A + D + F#
4)
F7 (b9)
Left hand = F * Right hand = Gb + A + C + Eb
5)
Fmin7 (b5)
Left hand = F * Right hand = Ab + B + Eb
6)
Ab (add 9) / F
Left hand = F * Right hand = Eb + Ab + Bb + C
Ok, now that we have learned a few "3" chords, let's combine them with "6-2-5-1" to create our
"3-6-2-5-1" progressions."3" chord: A + Db + Eb + Ab / F
"6" chord: Ab + C + Db + F / Bb
"2" chord: G + C + Db + F / Eb
"3" chord: A + Db + Eb + Gb / F
"6" chord (1): Ab + C + Eb + G / Bb
"6" chord (2): Ab + B + D + F / Bb
"2" chord: Gb + Bb + Db + F / Eb
3)
"3" chord: A + D + F# / F
"6" chord: Ab + C + Db + F / Bb
"2" chord: Db + Gb + Bb / Eb
"5" chord: C + F + A / Ab
"1" chord: Bb + Eb + Ab / Db
4)

"6" chord (1): F + Ab + Db / Bb
"6" chord (2): F + Ab + B + D / Bb
"2" chord: Gb + Bb + Db + F / Eb

5)

"5" chord (1): Ab + Db + F / Ab
