Private Songwriting/Composition Lessons

Service Description

Composition, Songwriting, Music Theory, Notation (by hand and through Finale) I work with a variety of composition styles, including concert music, musical theater, and songwriting. Beginning students will learn all about harmony, counterpoint, form, and part-writing which will give them the skills they need for more complex compositions. Intermediate-Advanced students will build on these skills while honing their craft and finding their voice as a composer. Songwriting lessons focus on popular songwriting, including musical theater and country music. You will learn about harmony and form, but lyric writing and also how to tell a story through song. You will also work on how to create a catchy hook, how to keep your song focused and clear, how to create a "turn" at the end, and how to grab and keep the listener's attention. All lessons taught online through Skype, Google Hangouts, or Google Duo. Levels Taught: Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced
