The Gospel Piano Turnaround You Need to Master ????
In this video, I break down the traditional gospel turnaround using the 1-6-2-5 chord progression, showing you how to play it with chromatic bass walk-ups, diminished chords, first and second inversions, and altered dominant voicings like the 7♭9 and ♯5♯9. I demonstrate the pattern in the key of C and explain how to internalize it using both hands before moving it to all 12 keys.
