And thanks to an initiative by the School of Contemporary Music at the Victorian College of the Arts , you can do just that this coming school holidays. Oh yeah.

(Monday 1st July – Friday 5th July) is a five-day course where participants will be introduced to a range of songwriting techniques, lyrics, hooks and melodies while creating their own songs. Discussion about the business of writing will be of particular interest to those considering entering the music industry. On the final day you will perform your work in a live recording concert.

Through group sessions and individual work you'll be introduced to some realities and strategies in the music industry including understanding the pop market, song form basics, popular themes, melody writing, rhyming schemes, chord progressions, reharmonisation, collaboration, production, differentiating between verse and chorus, and developing a personal style.

This is not a course for complete beginners as some prior musical knowledge and ability is required. It will be of great value to those who have made a start with songwriting, and would like to develop their songwriting skills further.



Enrolments close Monday 24 June (unless sold out prior) and cost for the five days is $550 (including GST)& #8232 ; with a 20% discount for enrolled University of Melbourne students and a staff discount of 10% for University of Melbourne alumni.
