Recently, we hosted one of our 3-day songwriting courses led by award-winning Berlin singer/Songwriter Donata Kramarz, known professionally as Donata (above).
Throughout the engaging course, students were guided through key songwriting concepts such as melody and harmony writing, exploring song structure, and crucial skills in writing meaning lyrics.
