We are delighted to be hosting Janette Mason’s Art of Arranging course for the third
year in a row, although the course will be running later in the year than we
anticipated.
New dates to be announced as soon as we know.
The course is perfect for those of you who have written a song and maybe made a
rudimentary recording, but want to learn how to arrange the parts for other band
members and bring a rich, full sound to your song or, alternately, pare it back for a
more unplugged sort of sound.
During the course you will learn about form, harmony, style and texture and how to
apply these to your composition. You will also learn about click tracks, chord charts,
and what to expect when making a pro recording. With a week in-between the first
session and the final session, you will get to arrange your song, applying everything
you have learned.
When you return, you get some superb vocal coaching with Kim Roberts, and run
throughs of your song with Janette on keyboards, Tom Mason on bass and Simon
Lea on drums.
For recording day, Janette will be on piano and also acts as your musical director,
but it will be you largely communicating with the engineers and the musicians to
achieve a master recording and mix of your song.
