Henry Ng Tsz Kiu Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 It's basically ok! The "it's" in b.2 should be a low G. "All my" in b.5 is a dotted one instead of even crotchets. The "my" in b.6 and the "in" in b.7 is a D, instead of an F. "As I'm" in b.9 is A for both notes. In b.11 there should be lyrics 'Lord I know you' with notes A,G,G,F. And there should be more bars I guess? Henry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henry Thanks for the feedback, I actually decided to simplify that spot a little and take out those words when notating it. Are there any other issues with my rhythm?

GospelPiano12 Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 It is, very difficult Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GospelPiano12 Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 Another one, I'd like to make my chord progression a little more interesting. This one is supposed to have a somber feel on the verses, but a bigger more "orchestral/grand" sound on the chorus. If anyone has any ideas on what could replace the Gm7 in both verse and chorus let me know. I'm also hearing a Bb-Dm-Dbdim7-C7 at the end of the chorus instead of a Bb-Gm-Gdim7/Db-C7 MP3 Play / pause JavaScript is required. 0:00 0:00 volume < previous > next menu PTT-20230120-WA0013 < previous > next PDF 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry Ng Tsz Kiu Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Actually why do you want to replace the Gm7 chord? I don't find it bad here. If you don't want the seventh you can always replace it with a G or D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GospelPiano12 Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 (edited) I just feel like there could be a better, more interesting chord there. Maybe something with a Db in the bass and I could have a F (6/4) chord afterward? What about the rest of my progression?
