ATTENTION SONGWRITERS! (and anyone who simply loves
songs) A group 'Songwriting Masterclass'
[limit of 10 participants] will be held over two consecutive days of
SongFest - Saturday
and Sunday, from 1:00pm to 2:30pm - prior
to each day's festival performances. The masterclass will be
conducted by Dean Friedman, with expected drop-ins by one or more SongFest
performers/songwriters.
Topics covered will include strategies for (a) finding inspiration (b)
making musical and lyrical choices (c) what to do after painting
yourself into a musical/lyrical corner (d) taking creative risks and
dealing with doubt, as well as... (e) exploring the connection between
writing songs and performing them. These two 90 minute sessions are sure to be
illuminating and informative for aspiring and professional songwriters
alike, as well as anyone who truly appreciates good songs and the folks
who write them. Note: class size is limited to 10, in order to give
participants an opportunity to share one of their own compositions, if
they desire, for feedback by instructors. Participants are welcome to
bring their instruments, with the sole exception of banjo players (Just
kidding - we love the banjo!)
