I found out something I use to neglect and i wanted to share it here, it's about scoring a son. You know as musicians, we are mostly conversant with scoring songs which requires us to know almost every dynamics and skills that was done in that piece of music ๐ŸŽต, and of course it doesn't stop there, we're expected to know it to a point where we can cover the song word for word.

Some people say it's hard to score a song and cover it exactly the way it was done, well maybe not very exactly but almost exactly, I've learnt how to score a song with this few tricks, remember I said earlier that it's something I neglected before but now I'm seeing it's effects.

  • The first is to always play that particular song, I'm sure most of us would know about this and also about the fact that it aid to understand and know the lyrics more, but we also need to understand that most times expecially for people like me, we always find it hard to catch the lyrics of a song when we're intentional about it, sometimes I might just be casual over a song but within a short period of time I'w score the lyrics but if I was so intentional it would have taken more time, this is because we tend to view or rate some pieces of music more than what it is, sometimes we underestimate simplicity.

  • I've also learnt to relate the song to my daily life, it's helps to more conversant with the song and also to understand the lyrics more, understanding the song makes scoring a song very easy, with that you can easily get the next word in the lyrics by just hearing someone hum the song.

All this points became more clear to me when I was rehearsing for the hive open mic weekly concert, initially I hated short time rehearsals but these points made me learn to adapt, I'm a kind of person that takes time to rehearse a song sometimes even a week, I usually listen to songs for longer time and then get used to it but with these points, I've learnt to adjust.

It's so hard๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜„, sometimes I end up not participating, all because I haven't scored the song or it's not what I want to hear. These are helpful tips thanks a lot.
