Students will receive guided instruction in the application and synthesis of compositional techniques toward the creation of effective original songs in popular styles. Students will write several songs during the term, and through these efforts they will gain a familiarity with the creative process as well as begin to explore their own musical voice. Students will apply techniques of form, melody, harmony, rhythm, and lyric writing learned through the study of well-known songs by major figures in the popular music world. The course will be structured around hands-on creative projects, and will include discussion, lecture, critical music listening and analysis.
