Songwriting Genius? YES!!! Editor's Note: As 2008 begins - this themed series of this newsletter begins again - with the foundational topic of songwriting education. In the past we've looked at the books, courses, schools and so forth that are all suited to making you a better songwriter - both craft-wise and career-wise - but this issue will focus on a new offering that is more a combination of music and songwriting education with the application of the psychology of creativity. The program - The Songwriting Genius Within You - combines optimal techniques for getting into the right frame of mind for maximum impact with your creativity and intertwines the lessons of the masters from Mozart to today's pop icons. I'll be going through the songwriting genius program myself this year as I begin work on my album. So as we start off this year together I wish you the best with your music and your learning, living and loving and that you too write many a great song this year :-)
Your Inner Songwriting Genius? YES!!! The Songwriting Genius Within You recognizes that within all of us is a unique voice of expression and connection with the world that if uninhibited can shine through in beautiful moving songs. It recognizes too that there is an ongoing need to develop craft as well - like in learning about song structuring and honing your ability with your instrument. In the big picture the program puts forth ideas that allow the harnessing of your creativity with certain techniques and other thought processes derived from many masters over hundreds of years. A Break From The Academic The Songwriting Genius Within You - was compiled in a principal effort to bring in the creativity quotient of songwriting in a real world way. In this program the author takes you through concrete exercises that are designed to unleash the non judgmental, non analytical creative part of your brain - and soul if you will - to write your most moving and inspiring music. In these contexts the structured craft is not completely ignored but rather put into background so that you are simply free to play and allow your creativity to flow. Thus your best - indeed your most moving and inspirational - works can come through. The Methods of The Masters The author has taken pains to review the creative methods of masters, from classical to contemporary pop, to compose his program and in particular dedicates an entire text to the enduring lessons and works of Mozart. As you may be aware Mozart's compositions have been scientifically shown to increase intellectual capacity as first demonstrated in a study by Frances Rauscher, a psychologist affiliated with the University of Wisconsin at Oshkosh. And to think that all of this came from Mozart's most creative reaches - his right brain if you will not his left. So it appears very possible for you to get smarter and more creative all at once which can't help but lead to better songs. The author even goes outside of the music world to bring in the creative processing gems of great thinkers like Einstein and Socrates and shows you how to apply them to your writing. Single Songs To Album Projects The Songwriting Genius Within You consists of three ebooks and a video tutorial all totally $37 (US dollars). The main text is accompanied by a volume devoted to the subject of creating an album's worth of songs in one month, the Mozart text and a collection of video tutorials that detail all the exercises and techniques described in the program.
