Shameless Plug For My CLASSES (2!) At The 2015 Road Rally
Posted: Thu Oct 08, 2015 1:45 pm
Hi all... I'll be teaching these two classes again at the 2015 Road Rally. I taught the song structure class for the first time last year and received excellent feedback on it. The music business class has been a steady crowd pleaser for a few years now. Please join me!!
Casey
Simple Song Structures That Sell!
Struggling to get more songs forwarded and attract the ears of A&R people? Often it’s all about structure and beginner songwriters (and some experienced folks!) often miss the basics. Verses? Pre-Choruses? Choruses? Bridges? Casey Hurowitz, who has had many music placements and songs signed with music libraries, will talk about all those sections from both a musical and lyrical point of view. The class will listen to examples of popular songs and discuss what makes them tick as far as structure. Casey will also try to take CDs from the class and play some songs for discussion. So bring CDs and lyric sheets! Class participation strongly encouraged!
Music Business & The Terminology It Uses
Overwhelmed by the business side of music and all the terminology people use but you really aren’t sure about? This is a great “101” primer for the beginner or even the experienced! Confused about copyrights, publishing, how we make money from our music, royalties, Film/TV deals, reversion, exclusive, non-exclusive, work-for-hire, etc? Casey Hurowitz, who has a track record of many music placements himself, is a TAXI member who has grown by leaps and bounds during his membership. He is a prolific contributor to the TAXI forum and is highly regarded by the legions of members who are hungry for the answers to their music business questions. Want to shave months, maybe years off your learning curve? Then join Casey to get all your questions answered in plain, easy-to-understand language (from a non-lawyer perspective).
