Writing Lyrics (9–12 years)
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!
Jess Morgan will guide you through the basics of song writing, from exploring spoken word to building a catchy chorus that sticks in your head. You’ll learn creative tips, discover how to shape your ideas into music, and get advice for continuing your musical journey. Designed especially for 9–12-year-olds, you’ll finish by writing and performing a song of your very own.
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.
