Ever wanted to have a go at writing your own songs? Maybe you don’t play an instrument… perhaps you don’t have the confidence to sing. This online course is perfect for you!
In this inspiring course, songwriter Jess Morgan will introduce you to the art of spoken word song writing, guiding you step-by-step from first idea to finished piece. You’ll explore how storytelling brings music to life, how to create vivid imagery that sticks in listeners’ minds, and how to craft a memorable chorus, before putting it all together to create a song that’s uniquely yours.
Your course tutor is Norwich-based singer-songwriter Jess Morgan – you can find her songs on Spotify here. Jess has worked as singer songwriter for more than ten years – writing songs and touring very small, very dark folk music clubs all over the world… and just once, the O2 Arena.
This course is entirely free and is available for 9-12 year olds.
