Udemy Guitar Grammar Learn to Write Guitar Solos [TUTORiAL]

This course uses the analogy of language to discuss the function of guitar solos in modern song writing. The too often under appreciated guitar solo is in reality a valuable tool for any songwriter. A well written guitar solo can accomplish things that additional lyrical content often can't, and this course takes a look at some best practices for writing a great guitar solo.

This course stays away from theoretical musical lingo in favour of the more accessible metaphor of language. It discusses things like inflection, phrasing and even swear words and their role in the construction of a guitar solo. After all, music is a language and once you begin to draw the comparison, as this course shows, it is hard to un-see. If you are a song writer who is looking at ways to involve instrumental elements like guitar solos into your writing, this course provides a song first look at some practical approaches you can take towards writing your first guitar solo. I hope that this course helps you to better understand guitar solos, and I am sure that you will get a lot out of it.
