Lets Write a Song Together - Think, Sing, Play, Smile!Translate this text using Google Translate.

I have been writing songs now for 30 years, including being asked to write lyrics for local charities and for special occasions. Songwriting theory and musical theory and compositions can often take the fun out of lifting and playing music - whether its a guitar, microphone, drum kit! These 1 hour sessions give the customer an opportunity to explore musical styles, rhythms, while personalising a song for their own use. Every song created will be supplied in an electronic copy, with the lyrics displayed in a certificate explaining the background to the song/ lyrics/ tune etc. Option1 : Tutor and customer discuss the scope of the song - whwether the song is to be personal - about someone, somewhere, a particular event - whether the song is to be uplifting or melancholy, with distortion, or smooth? These personalised songs can be so well received; especially with a copy of a certificate explaining why it was written, when it was written and for whom. Option 2: The Random Song - pick some random words and create a masterpiece; see the story come to life as the song verses merge into a meaningful chorus.... or let the fun begin, and let the children ( small and grown up) have loads of ideas which randomly converge into YOUR song! Can be done in person as part of a 'party' or online over Teams etc. No two sessions are ever the same; and multiple members can dial in if you want them to share in the Songwriting process! Please feel free to ask questions, I have sample certificates available, and would love to hear from you! Every session comes with an e version of the recorded song, and an electronic copy of the certificate, showing the lyrics and details of the songwriter, date created/recorded.

🎵 Artistic Direction & Creative Coaching (ONLINE & IN-PERSON)Translate this text using Google Translate.

For artists, songwriters, and creatives ready to shape their vision. Are you working on your own songs and feeling stuck? Do you have a head full of ideas but struggle to bring them together into one clear artistic story? Or maybe you’ve already created something you're proud of, but you want to take it further — deeper, bolder, more you. I'm here to help you connect the dots. As a singer, songwriter, producer and creative director working on my own debut album, I know how overwhelming the creative process can feel. There’s so much more to being an artist than just making music. Your sound, your visuals, your story, your live performance — it’s all connected. That’s where I come in. In our sessions, we can explore whatever part of your creative world needs support: 🎵 Songwriting – melody, lyrics, structure, harmony 🎧 Production Direction – from early sketches to refined ideas 🌙 Artistic Identity – visual storytelling, aesthetics, branding 🎤 Performance & Presence – connecting with your audience 💡 Creative Strategy – organizing ideas and unlocking new ones 🌀 Intuitive Guidance – sometimes you just need a sounding board You don’t have to do this alone. Whether you're a beginner or a more advanced artist, we’ll work with what’s already inside you — your instincts, your taste, your questions. Sessions are fully personalized and can be a one-time deep dive or part of a longer creative journey together.

Creative music production / composition / songwriting / performance for all ages and skill levelsTranslate this text using Google Translate.

If you are interested in composition, music production, songwriting and performance but feel like you need some technical or creative motivation, this is the lesson for you. If you feel discouraged or overwhelmed by the technical aspects of a creative process, this is the lesson for you. In these lessons, we will work on making the most of what we have through creative-problem solving and inspiration-hunting. You bring your ideas and we develop them together, have challenging conversations and explore alternative approaches to composition, production and songwriting to get you closer to your vision. We will also explore the many possibilities of working with a live band, ensemble or orchestra and how to encourage a healthy but focused work process. Some more things covered in the process: - Logic Pro X (mixing, producing, sampling, midi, audio recording) - Composition (score writing / editing, notation software, orchestration / arrangement, music theory, composing for film / video) - Songwriting (arranging, alternative score-writing, band communication, demo-making) - Experimental production (eg. no-input mixing, prepared instruments, effect-pedals) _________________________________________________________________ Do not let your ambition be hindered by limitations, but allow it to be inspired by them!

I offer one-on-one lessons in film composition and soundtrack creation, tailored to your specific goals, whether you're a beginner or an advanced musician. As an award-winning composer (RTVE Award for Best Film Score) with a Master's degree in Composition from Kent State University (USA), I bring to your table an internationally renowned methodology. My goal is to share with you the same creative techniques I use in the professional industry and have taught at high-performing American institutions. In my hands-on classes you will be able to: -Learn with a professional vision: From the fundamentals of harmony, counterpoint and the development of motifs, to advanced orchestration and compositional fluency. -Create soundtracks: Discover the narrative tools applied to music for film, television and video games, guided by an internationally multi-award-winning composer. -Develop your own voice: Overcome creative blocks and bring your own musical ideas to life in any style or genre. -Academic preparation: If you are looking to pass entrance exams to the conservatory, I will guide you with the utmost rigor thanks to my teaching experience backed by a Master's degree in Teacher Training. Classes are available in person at my studio in Terrassa or online, and can be taught entirely in Spanish or in English to focus on the global market.

Marloes does an excellent job of understanding the student's needs and goals. Always attentive during the lessons, she provides clear/targeted feedback on areas of improvement and actively listens to your singing. Most importantly, she creates a comfortable/safe environment to experiment with your voice. As a beginner in singing, I highly recommend anyone who wants to get started singing to take lessons with her!
