During this class, we will create a new summer songs together Firstly, we will come up with a theme. Students will suggest their favorite things about summer and we will mix and match those suggestions to come up with a theme and a main character. Then, I will take suggestions from students of what this character wants. That will help inform the direction of the story our song is telling. Once we have decided what the song will be about, students will suggest lyrics and I will add them to the song! They can also suggest melodies we can use. I will be playing the piano and will put the final song together. Once we've written the final song, everyone will get a chance to sing!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello!
My name is Madeleine and I am a pianist, singer-songwriter, and composer based in Los Angeles and Boston. I have been playing piano for the last twelve years and have been writing music since 2012. I currently study Film Scoring at Berklee College of Music as a piano principal. Since 2014, I have released two EPs, "91 Keys" and "Don't Bite," and have multiple projects currently in the works.
I'm looking forward to teaching your students all about the wacky world of songwriting, from the basics of writing lyrics and chord progressions, to coming up with our own fantasy worlds and writing musical stories about them!
