Piano Plays G maj7add13

The voicings both hands hold for G maj7add13 at the piano, and the arrangement part built around them.

G maj7add13 spells G – B – D – E – F#. A chord chart tells you that much and stops; an arrangement asks what happens to it once the song is actually playing, which is the question this page answers.

The piano chair carries chordal pads under the verse and a two-bar fill going into the turnaround. The left hand keeps root and fifth under the beat while the right hand holds the chord close to where the last one sat, so a change under the verse moves a finger or two instead of the whole hand.

Every voicing below is drawn across all 88 keys from A0 to C8 — root position, the 1st and 2nd inversions that keep a pad in place across a change, a spread voicing for a chorus that wants air and the left-hand bass under a right-hand chord — and none of them plays back: this site's audio is a plucked-string engine, and a piano pushed through it would be a fake.
