Final 4×4: Knitting Together 2 Songs
Week 4: Songwriters Association of Canada
Summer 4×4 Challenge: Final Challenge
- I really enjoyed the SAC 4×4 Challenge, and am soon off on vacation; I will not have access to piano or guitar. So, I really tried to pull something together for this final challenge, If not nothing else, I can say I did all 4.
- Like all the exercises, I can see value in this one; I may use this technique again in future. I do like the suggestion made that we consider over-laying sections of one song onto another.
- I used the Chorus from another song onto this one; I used the chord progression of the current song. I think that there is potential here, but they still seem more like sutured together than wedded together. I am aware of this, and would work on it for the Challenge had I more time.
- I also note that when importing sections of another song; I also imported the lyrics from the second song, which changes, I think the meaning of the first.
- Thanks Emma – Lee for this Challenge
