Description:

This course extends and expands topics discussed in Songwriting I, and addresses additional topics for the professional songwriter. The class includes lyric, harmonic, melodic, and formal analysis, and looks at the resulting symbiosis of these elements in forming a well-crafted and coherent whole. Songwriting II addresses application of these elements to create more artful narrative approaches and their application in larger and more complex musical forms. The class also includes a more intensive workshop for discussion and development of student works in progress, as well as instruction in creating recorded song demos in the project studio environment. Aspects of publishing, royalty structures, and professional alternatives for the working songwriter are also addressed. 3 CREDITS PREREQUISITES: 32-2221 SONGWRITING I
