Theme Writing In Practice

with Emily Hawkins

postponed due to illness

NEW DATE ANNOUNCED SOON

Writing a strong theme can come easily through inspiration, but what happens when inspiration doesn’t strike? Emily has previously shown us what makes a great melody through analysing themes you love, but now let’s look at how this works in practice. In this webinar, we’ll be briefly recapping what makes a strong theme and then writing one in real time, with an accompanying chord progression.
