Master the Art of Songwriting

Songwriting is an art. Yet, it is also a skill that can be learned. Even if you are already writing songs, you can get much, much better. Artists such as Leonardo Da Vinci apprenticed under a master to learn to perfect his skills. Should you do any less?

My Songwriting Coach can help you become the best composer possible with a weekly lesson combined with your personal drive to become the best you can be.

Can you answer yes to all these questions?

	Do you know all the major, minor, dominant 7th and diminished chords in each key?
	Do you know all the secondary dominant approach chords for each key?
	Do you know how to interlace parallel major and minor keys?
	Do you know how the scale alterations in minor keys change their chords?
	Do you know all of the cadence types and how to use them?
	Can you effectively use appoggiaturas to begin melodic phrases?
	Are you able to use both harmonic and non-harmonic tones plus chromatics in your melodies?
	Are your melodies easily singable?
	Can you effectively use an anacrusis to give momentum to the beginning of a section?
	Can you name and identify all the structural types of musical forms?
	Do you have command of your rhyme schemes and are they consistent?
	Can you identify the words that have the greatest rhythmic stress in your lyrics?
	Can you enhance those notes by heightened pitch or duration?
	Do your lyrics easily say what you want to say?

These are just a portion of the knowledge, skills, and techniques that you can learn from working with My Songwriting Coach. Of course, just learning about a bunch of techniques doesn’t make you a good writer. It’s about inspiration and heart. It’s about knowing when to use what technique to get what effect. It’s about balance, and more about what it feels like than anything else. You need to practice. You need to be fearless. You need to be willing to grow. My Songwriting Coach will help you Master the Art of Songwriting.
