This progressive video is a #composer #challenge using the "power of demonstration" to help learn what is needed for good #melody writing. I asked 5 composers to help me come up with a checklist, and throughout this challenge, I give you my opinions on what good melody is. I do this through careful analysis of their #music compositions through the art of #musicappreciation.
This is a comprehensive analysis of music (within a half hour) to help you learn how to listen to music correctly, but in a fun way! So if you are composer, whether a beginner or professional, come on in! There are insightful music composition tips inside.
