But, the overall harmony of the music I try composing isn&#8217;t my main problem. What I&#8217;m getting stuck on is how songwriters change up the feel. I thought it might be the speed of the song, or maybe how loud parts get played, but I think there&#8217;s something more to it than that. Can you talk through what makes song sections sound unique?<br \/>\nTrevor  &#8212;  Louisville, KY<\/p>\n<p>A: Harmony is often fairly straightforward when it comes to; Pop music, R&#038;B, Country &#038; Western, Rock, (as well as, many other styles), in that much of these common genres of music generally only use a handful of chords within a piece. To uniquely separate the song sections, what we&#8217;ll often find, is there&#8217;ll be changes in the way the overall dynamics of the sections are performed and recorded. This can turn a verse section into an interlude, or perhaps change a chorus into an outro. We&#8217;ll begin by doing a quick analysis of a song I&#8217;ve composed for this lesson. Then, we&#8217;ll run through it on the guitar to find out how parts can be performed differently to either build up or subtract from the overall dynamic feel of exactly how a song&#8217;s sections will have their final effect upon the listener. <\/p>\n<p>TWITTER FEED:<br \/>\n<a class=\"twitter-timeline\" data-width=\"525\" data-height=\"788\" data-dnt=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/andrewwasson?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">Tweets by andrewwasson<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n____________________________________<\/p>\n<p>ANDREW WASSON &#8211; Personal Website:<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.andrewwasson.com<br \/>\n(weekly postings &#8211; w\/FREE Guitar Handouts)<br \/>\n____________________________________<\/p>\n<p>Visit our Creative Guitar Studio Zazzle page:<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.zazzle.com\/creativeguitarstudio\/gifts<br \/>\n____________________________________<\/p>\n<p>OFFICIAL Creative Guitar Studio Products Website:<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.creativeguitarstudio.com\/<br \/>\n____________________________________<\/p>\n<p>SOUND CLOUD: Listen to some of my songs.<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/soundcloud.com\/creativeguitarstudio\/<br \/>\n____________________________________<\/p>\n<p>2nd YOU TUBE CHANNEL: The Guitar Blog<br \/>\nAndrew&#8217;s Popular &#8220;GuitarBlog&#8221; YouTube Channel:<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.youtube.com\/guitarblogupdate<br \/>\n____________________________________<\/p>\n<p>Facebook Fan Page:<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Andrew-Wasson\/76585035288<br \/>\n____________________________________<\/p>\n<p>Creative Guitar Studio on Blogspot:<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/creativeguitarstudio.blogspot.com\/<br \/>\n____________________________________<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=HEX4C9ZpNtY\">source<\/a><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DONATIONS: http:\/\/www.andrewwasson.com\/donations.php MORE LESSONS: http:\/\/www.creativeguitarstudio.com\/ Search Andrew Wasson.com for FREE lesson Handouts.
