How to Start Making Music
1.Define what your talent is: do you have a great voice or can you play a musical instrument?
2.Choose the genres of music you are most attracted by: is it classical music, pop, or hard rock? Do not be afraid of experimenting and trying new kinds of music.3.Think of whether you want to play in private or you would prefer performing in front of big audiences? If the latter is the case, think of what musical format will be most attractive for your audience.4.If you decide to play in a band with other people, it is crucial to settle the organizational issues. Rehearsal times and places are important, because there will hardly be any positive result if your cooperation is chaotic.5.In addition to organizational clarity, define whether you have the same artistic preferences with the other members of the band. Otherwise you will end up arguing during three quarters of your rehearsal time.6.A perfect activity for engaging many creative natures is staging a musical. You can use the already existing scenarios or make up your own one. In any case, make sure that all the details are considered, in regard to not only music but also costumes, light, dance, etc.7.Set clear goals and deadlines if you want to complete your musical project successfully. Although making music is a creative process, it still needs quite a lot of planning, especially when your ambition is public performance.by: Joel Berry
