    Yes, that songwriting impresario, Pat Pattison from Berklee College of Music, is back to treat Austin to another one of his enlightening and bewitching song-writing seminars!

    This seminar will show you how to get the most out of your lyrics by combining them accurately and effectively with melody.

    There's no use writing a great lyric and a great melody if they don't work together. An unfortunate setting of a word or phrase can sink the emotion of the song, calling your listener's attention away from WHAT you are saying to HOW you are saying it.

    Pat Pattison is a professor at Berklee College of Music, where he teaches Lyric Writing and Poetry. In addition to his three books, Writing Better Lyrics, The Essential Guide to Lyric Form and Structure, and The Essential Guide to Rhyming, Pat has developed three online lyric-writing courses for Berklee's online school. He has written over 30 articles for Home & Studio Recording Magazine and The Performing Songwriter.
