Introduction to Writing Song Lyrics
This four-week course is for anyone interested in the craft of lyric writing.
This fun, practical and creative course will provide opportunities for:
· Writing original lyrics for songs, musicals and any situation that calls for a lyric.
· Learning what makes certain great lyrics ‘tick’ and how to write your own.
· Exploring techniques to find your flow, unleash everyday creativity, overcome your inner critic and just write.
In the fourth and final week of the course, there’ll be an exciting opportunity to perform your lyrics live at a venue in the city to your peers, family and friends. No pressure, though; you’ll be supported to do this, and it’s optional. If it feels good, go for it or just enjoy a fun, social, grand finale to the course!
Open to all. You don’t need to be a musician and no instruments (or ability!) are needed. It’s all about the lyrics!
