1 Preface Creative Music has developed a revolutionary method enabling keyboard musicians to quickly harmonize a line of notes with infinite chord changes. Imagine being able to play a different chord on every melody note! Whether or not it is gospel, jazz, contemporary etc., Creative Music has published five volumes (1200 pgs) of instructional material that illustrates pictorially in color with easy-to-follow printed text instructions, of how to harmonize music of your choice with advanced voicings. The system is such that no two musicians will come up with the same resulting harmonization. Their patent pending technology has been internationally acclaimed by users who virtually witness that the new learning premise is categorically reinventing and rejuvenating how music should be taught henceforth. The initial distribution of “The Adventures in Harmony Course” has set off a sustained frenzy of international sales orders from both professional and amateur performers. As a subsequent result, Creative Music now uniquely occupies and satisfies a new segment of music artisans that have not yet been fully recognized because their departure from long-standing static methodology to a fluid self-styled mode where discovery and reaching for higher individual performance plateaus is beyond the scope of ordinary expectation. The users of The Adventures in Harmony course materials have been consistently reporting how the patent pending system has enhanced their ability to easily create, on the fly, complex chord harmonies and exciting progressions. The new learning principal is presented in an easy-to-follow format and goes against the grain of traditional music instruction. Our mission at gospel-chords.com Creative Music Ventures LLC., is to focus on quickly getting the musician to the end-result of playing beautiful advanced harmonies, without being burdened by the intricacies and complications of music theory. We want to give the musician a path of least resistance to reach this goal as quickly as possible. We have already done all the dirty work and analysis of chord structures, harmonies, progressions and their interrelationships. We have filtered all that down to a methodology that you can use, to consistently and easily achieve beautiful harmonization in your own music without being bogged down a fishing though the previous 1500 years of music theory. Music education has not changed in the last century, and Creative Music is on the forefront of turning that around. The "Adventures in Harmony Course" is re-inventing how music has been taught for the last century. Our instructional method goes against the grain of all past music education teaching methodologies. In fact we are proud of this "invention/discovery" and the internals of our system and technique are proprietary and were developed through years of computer analysis and modeling.

Gregory Moody Creative Music’s founder is an accomplished musician and software engineer, who comes from a family lineage of musicians, i.e., his world famous cousin NEA jazz master; flute, tenor and alto saxophonist, James Moody. A word from Gregory Moody: “The Adventures in Harmony Course” consist of hundreds of chord voicings that have been computer engineered and modeled using proprietary computer algorithms. The fascinating thing is that these chords can be fit together in any order similar to kids Lego building blocks to create an infinite possibility of chord progressions and harmonizations. Playing by number is not just for kids, the entire system is based on numbers; if you can count to 21 you can master this system. In following our system, it is nearly impossible to put together chords and create chord progressions that are not pleasing. Even the most novice musician is able to quickly create complex lush harmonies and progressions. The complete course consists of over 1200 pages of detailed instruction spread over seven volumes. To accompany the written material is 4 hours of video instruction on DVD. Students will find just the right mix of theory and instruction presented at a level that is sure to spawn creativity. This is not your typical “copy what I do” music course. In this course, there are no progressions or songs to remember. This is because the student is applying our techniques to music of their choosing to create their own unique harmonization. By using the course materials, students will be able to quickly turn their single finger melodies into colorful harmonizations.

Introduction

Harmonization is where you take something as simple as a single note, one finger melody, and turn that into a song where you are playing more than one finger at a time. Re-harmonization is where you take an existing song and play it with completely different chords, perhaps for the purpose of giving it a more soulful and contemporary feel If you have any music reading knowledge or experience, I’m sure that you know that music from a church hymnal that is played as it is written is boring and plain. Have you ever been in a church service where the organist or pianist is reading the music from the hymnal, but you know darn well, that what they are playing, is not what is written in the hymnal, and wondered where is the beautiful music that they are playing coming from? They are re-harmonizing as they play! With the Adventures in Harmony Play by Number System, you are going to discover that the process of harmonization is something that you will be able to do almost instantly after the completion of the course. Have you ever listened to a piece of music that you have never heard before, but is being performed by an artist that you are familiar with, and you were immediately able to identify the artist and say “Hey, that’s , Stevie Wonder or that’s Ray Charles.” You were able to do this because you recognized that artists harmonizations. Musicians tend to have favorite harmonization’s; ones that they tend to use very often. It is the musicians’ harmonization’s, that defines the musician and who they are. It is the harmonization that defines the artists’ style, and gives you the ability to recognize them, even though you may have never heard the song. With the Adventures in Harmony Play by Number System, you will have the ability to be YOU, an individual, and have your own unique harmonizations. The chords that you will be playing won’t be those simple plain sounding chords, they will be those contemporary, and soulful chords that you always wanted to know how to play. You will no longer have to try and be somebody else, or always asking somebody else for chords. With the Adventures in Harmony Play by Number System, people are going to be coming to YOU, and asking YOU…..”Hey man what are those changes!”

Many musicians fall into the following trap where they hear some beautiful chord changes and right away they are asking “Hey…What are those chord changes? What are those notes? Can I have that?” Please don’t go down that road because it’s really not helping you. In fact, that’s a much harder road to travel: 1) You have now forced yourself with the task of having to memorize a sequence of notes and changes, and depending on how good your memory is, who knows how long that is going to take. 2) Now you are becoming a robot, if you are not already one, where you are playing something the same way over and over from something that you have memorized. Now how boring is that it listen to! 3) And even worse, you are playing somebody else’s chord changes! Stop being somebody else. Stop playing chords that you probably don’t even know what they are; or how the chords or changes were put together. You are really going nowhere with this. 4) What’s usually the case is that the person you are asking “Hey, what are those changes,” probably couldn’t tell you, because they don’t remember what they just played, only because they made it up as they were playing! Now think about it, why would you want to play somebody else’s chord changes, those chord changes define who they are, wouldn’t you rather play your own chord changes! The Adventures in Harmony Play by Number System is going to expose how you can be YOU, an individual, playing your own beautiful chord changes! There are NO progressions to memorize in the Adventures in Harmony Play by Number System. That’s because you are going to be creating your own progressions as you play. Your music playing is about to move to the next level. This will truly be the most amazing music lesson you have ever had! With the Adventures in Harmony Play by Number System, we want to give you the ability to harmonize as you play, and be free to choose where you want to go musically depending on the mood. The entire course has over one thousand advanced voicing’s, and we mean those voicing’s that are going to turn heads! We are going to show you step-by-step how to use these voicing’s in your favorite music. U.S. Patent Pending @ Copyright 2010 – All Rights Reserved - Creative Music Ventures

If you purchase any of our DVD video course material, you will see that this is not your typical show off music course where something is played and they expect you to just watch and mimic and copy. In the course, we will explain every single chord transition, every note in every chord as well as the how and why. And in our DVD video course material when something is shown on the keyboard, there are going to be no fingers in the way if you are trying to look at the keys. You are going to get a clear unobstructed view using our computerized virtual keyboard system where you can see the notes being played with no fingers on the keyboard! The information that you are going to get in this course on advanced harmonization and passing chords has never before appeared in print. This is information that is usually only passed on among musicians by word of mouth. And it’s usually only among musicians in that “trusted circle,” and that trusted circle usually doesn’t include you! It is our intent to expose it all in this course. What is talked about in this course applies not only to organ but also piano. Musicians have even referred to some aspects of this course as the “Keyboard Musicians Missing Manual” This is the manual that didn’t come with your Keyboard. These are the music lessons you can’t just sign-up for at the local music store. In this course, we will take you step-by-step, with an example of starting from a simple one-note melody to a full-blown contemporary version with those beautiful chords changes.

2.1 IMPORTANT NOTICE

This course is not intended to replace a formal course in music theory. Our intent is to give you a process that you can use to quickly create advanced voicings. We have taken the formal “notion” of music theory and broken it down, simplified it, and presented many of the formal concepts in our “own way.” We did not want to bog you down to the extent that the material becomes too technical. All of the chord spelling and scales in this course are going to be the enharmonic spelling. i.e. The note (Gb) will always be called a (Gb), even if we are in the (D) scale, where that same (Gb) would formally be called an (F#). These details are NOT IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO PLAY THE NOTE. Our goal is to get you to that end result quickly, which is the ability to create and play the advanced voicings. If you are looking for something formal, then this is not the course for you, but if you are looking to play quickly and take a short cut, then you are in the right place! This manual is the introduction for the Adventures in Harmony Course. We fully describe the Adventures in Harmony Play by Number System. This tutorial contains samples voicings from many of our course reference volumes: In this tutorial you will see that everything we say about the course is true. 1) You are going to see that you will never play a song the same way twice! 2) You are going to see that you can create and insert passing chords on the fly as you play. 3) You are going to see that you can play beautiful chords from a simple single note melody. 4) You are going to see that you can make up and create passing chord progressions as you play. 5) You are going to see that there are NO progressions to memorize... because you are making them up as you play. You will discover that this will truly be the most amazing music lesson you’ve ever had.

This introductory material contains voicings from many different voicing reference manuals that are available separately. We have over 1200 voicings. The melody voicing reference manuals are interchangeable. The voicing process is the same; no matter which voicing reference you use. Your result may simply be a different chord. The core of this tutorial is presented as a case study, where we take a simple piece of music, analyze it step-by-step, and show you the different things that you can do to it to make it sound contemporary. Every note, every chord and chord change is explained, the how, why and all the possibilities. In this introductory tutorial, we will harmonize the first phrase of the hymn “Joy to the World” and turn it into a beautiful progression with many possibilities. The case studies will help you become proficient in the process of advanced harmonization. We are going to help you take your playing to the next level.

3 The Chord Notation Each chord in the Adventures in Harmony Play by Number System has the following information areas: The name of the chord is indicated at the top of every page. In this example, the chord is a minor add 6, 9. Notice that we do not indicate which kind of minor add 6, 9, i.e., an (A minor add 6, 9) or a (Bb minor add 6, 9). This is because the information that follows, is going to tell you how to construct the minor add 6, 9 in all 12 keys. The Left Hand bass note indicated, tells you that for this example, the note that you should play as the bass note in your left hand and or in the bass pedal with your foot. In this example, you should play an (E) as the bass with your left hand and or foot. This bass note, also further qualifies the full name of the chord for the example given. Therefore, the full name of the chord in the picture is an (E minor add 6, 9). The picture visually indicates which notes to play to construct an (E minor add 6, 9). The bass note is ALWAYS the root of the chord, and the bass note tells you what scale you need to be in, to create the chord using the Adventures in Harmony Play by Number System. Remember, the note that names the scale is always numbered number (1). Therefore the bass is always number one. So, in this example to create this (E) chord, we use the (E) scale, and (E) is note number (1) in the (E) scale.

The table that follows indicates which notes numbers in the scale are needed to create the chord. Use this table to create the chord in ANY key. Therefore, to create the chord (E minor add 6, 9), that means (E) is the bass note. Remember the bass note is always note number (1), and it tells us which scale we are in. The table indicates ‘Left Hand,’ note number (1), note number (1) in the (E) scale is (E). The table indicates ‘Right Hand,’ note numbers ( -3, 6, 9 and 12). Those are the note numbers from the (E) scale that you are going to play. The U.S. Patent Pending @ Copyright 2010 – All Rights Reserved - Creative Music Ventures

3rd of (E) is (Ab), so the -3 is ½ step lower at (G). The 6th of (E) is (Db), the 9th of (E) is (Gb) and the 12th of (E) is (B).

Numbering for key of E Note: The scales in this course may be enharmonic (alternate) spellings. i.e. in the key of (E), the (Gb) is officially named (F#) instead of (Gb). Note: The chord chart indicates to play a (-3), but scale tables do not show the accidentals, i.e. (b , #, -). If you look above at (3) in the (E) scale, you see an (Ab), you just have to lower it ½ step down to a (G) to make it a (-3). NOTE: The chords pictured at the top of every page in the reference books correspond to songs written in the key of (Db). Therefore, if you have already written down the Roman numbers for the notes in the song, you can immediately play it in the key of (Db) by looking at the pictures to obtain the U.S. Patent Pending @ Copyright 2010 – All Rights Reserved - Creative Music Ventures

proper chord. If you need the chord in another key, refer to the tables at the bottom of the page. Do not refer to the picture at the top of the page. If you needed this chord in the key of (C), that means the chord would be an (Eb minor add 6, 9). This also means that (Eb) would be the bass note that is played in your left hand and or foot. This also means that (Eb) is note number (1). So, to figure out the rest of the notes in the right hand, you are going to play the note numbers (-3, 6, 9 and 12). Those notes would be a (Gb), (C), (F) and (Bb).

Numbering for Key of Eb The Adventures in Harmony Play by Number System will represent all chords as described above. Each chord will be illustrated as indicated by Figure 3-1. Figure 3-1 shows an example of an (E minor add 6, 9) chord. It tells us that the bass is played with the left hand and that the bass note is (E). The number of the bass note is (1). It also tells us that the right hand consists of the (-3, 6, 9 and 12) of the (E) scale. You will also notice in our chord reference material that all chords are detailed note-bynote in all 12 keys. The table at the bottom of Figure 3-1 contains the notes for the pictured chord in all keys.

When we refer to chords in a particular key, chords are referred to by Roman Numbers and notes are referred to by decimal numbers. We have Roman Numbers I through Maj VII (I, II, III, IV, V, VI and Maj VII) that represent chords for each of the notes in the major scale. For example a (G) chord is the [V] chord in the key of (C), the [VI] chord in the key of (C) is an (A) chord. We can also have accidentals on the Roman Numbers. A [#V] chord in the key of (C) would be an (Ab) chord. When we use Roman Numbers to represent chords, the Roman Numbers do not go above [VII]. We would not refer to a chord as a [IX] chord; it would be a [II] chord. Note: There are two sevenths in any scale the Dominant 7th and the Major 7th. If the major 7th is not explicitly stated, then it is understood that we are referring to the Dominant 7th. The Major 7th is the note that occurs naturally in the major scale. For example, (B) is the major 7th in the (C) scale. The Dominant 7th is ½ step below the major 7th. The (Bb) is the Dominant 7th in the key of (C). Go ahead and play the chord indicated on the sample page in Figure 3-1. Play the (-3), (6), (9) and (12) with your right hand. Remember, these numbers are relative to the (E) Scale. Don’t forget to play the bass note with your left hand and foot. Now isn’t that one pretty!! (E min add 6,9)

The Roman numbers for all 12 scales may be found in the Appendix
