Second Avenue Songmakers Workshop

Loading...

The Tisch School of the Arts Second Avenue Songmakers is an 8 week songwriting workshop for elementary children Grades 1-5.  These 8 two-hour sessions will introduce children to the art and craft of songwriting while encouraging freedom of thought and the creative impulse.  Using a collaborative model adapted from The Tisch School of the Arts Graduate Musical Theatre Writing Program’s other longstanding community programs, the children will work with Tisch graduates who will lead them through the process of writing original songs. 
 
The workshops will consist of games, singing, and writing activities that will focus on inspiration, rhyming, rhythm and melody, song forms, styles, and end in a presentation of songs for family and friends.
 
Every child will have the opportunity to collaborate with other workshop participants and with songwriting professionals to create songs.  At the end of the 8 week workshop, each child will have copies of the music and a recording of the songs they’ve have helped create.
 
Courses are held from 10a.m.-12:00p.m. each Saturday starting February 7 – April 4 at the Tisch Graduate Musical Theatre Writing Program, 113 Second Avenue, 1^st floor (between 6^th and 7^th street).
