Course Description
Summary
This class will focus on the art of songwriting. What makes a strong melody? What makes an effective chord progression? How do lyrics bring a simple song to life? What are the other elements of a song that can make it a compelling piece of music?
We will study the music of great songwriters and compose pieces in the style of these great musicians. We will also work on bringing our own songs to their fullest potential. Be prepared to write music weekly and share the music you write in class.
