These sessions are aimed at collaboratively and independently writing and composing original music instrumentally and with lyrics (songs). This course is for people who want to create original music, learn how to write and construct their own songs and lyrics, gain skills in arrangement (particularly arranging for a group or band) and who are interested in expressing themselves and exploring creative ways to write and tell our stories. It is aimed at those with an interest in writing and making music from scratch and who have some experience or understanding of playing an instrument, singing or producing. This course is based in making new and original music rather than performing existing works, though people are welcome to bring their own original compositions/songs to be re-arranged, developed and explored further. These sessions are open to anyone on the supported learning/mindlift pathway.
