The first video I ever saw of Corey and I’ve been hooked ever since! She told him he’d be famous one day and it came to past, one of the greatest to ever do it!
That movement over the two five one... I'm like at least Sean had the nerve to try that. That's ridiculous. I just as lost 16 years later as I was then.
I take it Sean is a huge fan.. there are so many more musicians that ppl are sleeping on: like that boy Davy and so many others 🤷♀️ So much of Cory's stuff will have a Baptist church giving you the side eye..
There's a sub - category you are hearing in Cory's playing. He grew up in Brooklyn in a COGIC Church. COGIC Gospel organists play differently from Baptist or Apostolic Gospel Organists. And within COGIC, Organists in the East Coast and mid-West, play different Gospel harmonies than those on the West Coast. Mike Bereal, Jason White, Walter and Ed Hawkins, Andre Crouch, grew up and come out of West Coast COGIC churches, and you can hear the difference between East and West coasts.
5:37 Here's the thing, Sean. Cory is of a different breed. He started in gospel, but drew from the wider jazz and even pop influences. While everything you say about thinking from a gospel musician's perspective is valid, the truth is that the greats like Cory have a vast array of musical influences that aren't limited to gospel. Cory is able to harmonize melodies in what sounds like a weird 'outside' way because he's drawing from the resources you frequently find in jazz progressions, as well as his own personal interpretation of all that outsideness as he brings it into a gospel context. As soon as I heard the way he harmonized the Db note there, I immediately knew that was ART TATUM! Tatum used that very outside movement a whole lot in his playing, and it's no secret Cory literally absorbed a lot of Tatum. The progression is a temporary modulation to the 'b2' of the main key before finishing on the tonic of the main key. So in this case, Db/F, then E7 to A, then Bbm7 Eb7sus Eb7 to Ab etc. And guess what the 'b2' is? The _tritone substitute_ of the 5 of the main key! Back in the late swing and early bebop eras, Tatum (and a few others like Hank Jones) played it to embellish a regular 2-5-1 by playing a 5-1 on the b2. From the main key's POV, the whole movement becomes a b6-b2-2-5-1. If a gospel musician is asking questions as to how this type of playing is possible for these guys and how they can learn that, truth is they need a broader study of jazz especially. Not necessarily jazz for jazz's sake, but incorporating jazz elements that can function well in gospel, to be used to taste, ultimately to give the needed color and lift that serves the overall worship experience.
This is great example of how we do "musicking" in the black church. All of the country, after a gospel concert, a young guy is gonna hop on organ and get put to the test 😂
I actually lost interest since i havent seen a jason tyson video in yrssssssssssssss can u plz upload 1more I've been askin all the time under all ur vid
Alain Merville does all the Jason Tyson / Bruce Hornsby stuff..also check out Rodney East with PrettySimpleMusic..he breaks down alot of the Bruce Hornsby stuff
There is so much ambient noise going on in the background and the fact that your able to still dissect what Cory is doing on the organ is really impressive, super hearing you got there sir !
Cory’s been playing in church since he was a toddler. You can’t pay for what he has. Nothing like complete immersion. Of course, it helps to be innately gifted.
What is the theory behind his 2-5-1 fluid harmony? You said you need to play without thinking , but thats not what Cory's doing. All the greats have to put in time and effort for things to appear effortless
word up to Sean, teaching us how to play these Gospel licks, glory be to GOD!
Doc! Much appreciated man!
The first video I ever saw of Corey and I’ve been hooked ever since! She told him he’d be famous one day and it came to past, one of the greatest to ever do it!
Yeah man!
Thanks boss Sean. God bless you ❤🎉
You’re doing something special out here!
Appreciate you Chris!!
I saw him play in Beverly Hills and I asked him if he remembered that this girl told him he’d be famous. He didn’t remember it, but it came to pass.
Wow man!
That was tremendous Sean, real gracious and welcoming.
Appreciate it man!
@@SeanWilsonPiano Appreciate you man, keep doing your thing. Don't mind these parasocial relationships when they're so dang educationally nutritious.
Do the rest of the song plz
At 7:10, think "Giant Steps", Sean. ;-)
this is the best
That movement over the two five one... I'm like at least Sean had the nerve to try that. That's ridiculous. I just as lost 16 years later as I was then.
Yeah, that one took a little while to figure out before the vid
@@SeanWilsonPiano Joining the site but a little intimidated for the one on one.
I take it Sean is a huge fan.. there are so many more musicians that ppl are sleeping on: like that boy Davy and so many others 🤷♀️
So much of Cory's stuff will have a Baptist church giving you the side eye..
Haven't done Cory all year... and Im planning on doing more, cause his placement is still in top 5 for gospel
@@SeanWilsonPiano well it is your channel 🤷🏽♀️
@@SeanWilsonPianoAwesome video !!!! Who are the other 4 in the top 5?

It isnt feeling things its a finding things method coming from poaying by ear more than anything and it became its own genre ie gospel
That video has 341K views... about 41K is ME!!!
That’s funny bro 😂!
This was the one for me man. 2008-2009ish. What a time 🔥🔥🔥
Yup, well over a decade!!

Did she say "A flat"?
Yeah
The impromptu video that put Corey Henry on the map!
yup! Definitely one of them, and all those Sebastian Wheatwork sheds
The other girl Joy used to play with Beyonce too!
Yesirrr doc!
I'm in for anything, Cory...😊
He is just amazing
Great transcribing and teaching Sean
Glad it was helpful!
I wish I had the same ears with Sean - sometimes it's way harder to immitate complex chord progression than to play them
Very good observation! It is harder because it forces you to play “outside” your existing vocabulary

Appreciate it man!
Please can you send me your list of 100 gospel songs that embody everything about gospel piano (licks, reharm and everything)

I swear Corey is not human 👽
Thank you, do more on Cory hennery
sweet
Give some soup 🍲 of today
What is the theory behind his 2-5-1 fluid harmony? You said you need to play without thinking , but thats not what Cory's doing. All the greats have to put in time and effort for things to appear effortless
You just supported my point. Playing without thinking would require the time and effort prior
One of my FAVORITE Corey Henry videos. 🔥🔥🔥
Yeah man, thanks for watching!
Thank you Sean. This was fantastic
Glad it was helpful!
