Video Tutorial in the Works: Improvising Ideas for “More About Jesus”

“More About Jesus” is one of those challenging hymns to “dress-up”!

Wow! There are multiple pattern ideas for this song! I’m trying to settle on which ones to share with you all.

Did you know you can insert rests in place of the right hand melody during repetitive sections?  Doing this avoids overworking the hand and produces a smoother tone. More improvising tips and visuals soon!

Most of this hymn consists of the I and V chord with the exception of the  ii chord occurring once in the verse and one time in the chorus.

The upcoming video tutorial will cover the verse of “More About Jesus” in the key of G Major.

    Sounds great! I’m looking forward to it….I really don’t enjoy 6/8 time at all. I’m secretly hoping for some chord substitutions (nothing far-out, though, as our church still sings parts.) Thank you!!! I appreciate your work!

    That was pretty. Would you consider putting those notes up on the screen so we can play them.
