LESSON DETAILS

Original Composition Techniques

In this original composition, I will show you how I organized this song for a gig that I had later that night. I will show you the techniques that I used to create the composition and how to solo over it. If you are interested in writing your own original compositions, you will find many useful techniques and "tricks" that you can apply from this lesson to your own songs.
