Imagine picking up your guitar and playing something you composed.
No one else on the planet, or in the history of the world has ever played those same notes in that way before. Picture how would it feel to play your own piece... Have you always wanted to compose, but just couldn't figure it all out? • You have no idea where to start, so you don't even try starting • You start writing something and then it just goes astray • You complete something but it doesn't float your boat |
Here is a piece I composed using this method:
The old masters like Bach, Beethoven and Mozart learned their craft by model composition. But unfortunately this method is no longer practiced today.
Using this method of composing enables you to: • Learn about music theory in a fun and engaging way • Understand musical style and form (Baroque, Classical, Waltz, Minuet, etc.) • Become familiar with all musical elements (rhythm, dynamics, phrasing, etc.) |
Introducing a unique program:
Composing doesn't have to be scary
I've developed a process that makes it easy and simple: 1) Learn and study your chosen piece 2) Copy the piece out by hand onto manuscript 3) Sketch your piece 4) Fill it out, revise and edit Using a process is like following a recipe. By the end of it, you have created a unique and stunning piece that is 100% yours. You could enjoy playing through it on your own, marveling at the sounds specially organized by you. Or you could play it for your friends and watch their amazed reaction after they hear who composed the piece! |
Couldn't I do this on my own?
It's certainly possible to compose on your own, but having someone to guide you can really help. Most, if not all of the great composers had teachers to guide them. - Bach learned from his brother - Mozart learned from his father - Beethoven learned from the great Haydn Nothing beats personal coaching: • Helps you achieve your best work • Gives you accountability to actually complete your composition • Can now be done online from the comfort of your own home |
"I must say it was an absolute pleasure working with you. I had no clue how to get started but now I have a clear road map for my next piece!"
--- Julie "This class was so much more than I was initially expecting! It really reinvigorated my relationship with the guitar. When you are crafting phrases together, music theory becomes tangible and not just an academic exercise. I enjoyed every minute and can’t thank you enough!"

FAQ
Q: I've never composed before, will I be able to go through this course successfully?
A: Yes, that's the purpose of this course - to give you solid skills in writing music by model composition. Because you're modeling something composed by a master/expert, you'll be able to compose something even if you've never tried writing music before. Q: I'm a beginner guitarist, will that affect how I compose something? A: The level of your playing will have an affect on what you compose, as it's assumed that you'll be playing the piece you write. This is actually a great way to learn about the basic rudiments of music, because you're putting them all into practice. Simply put, a beginner student will write something shorter and less complex than a more advanced one. Q: What if I don't manage to compose something in 1 month? A: The composing method used here is designed for quick composing. Following a clear plan helps you compose quickly, so there's no doubt that you'll be able to compose something in 1 month. Arrangements can be made if some extra time is needed. |
