From Singer to Songwriter: An Artist's Path in Brazilian Music
Files
Abstract
What should a brazilian female singer and songwriter do to distinguish herself from the many other ones begin to release their albums now? What elements and tools should this composer and performer have in her music to be noticed? In what ways the formal training in a music college can improve the final result of this artistic work? In this culminating experience, those questions will be answered during the process of composing, arranging and recording five original songs, in brazilian styles. By understanding the profile of the brazilian female singer-songwriters, researching on their work and improving musical skills in performance, composition, improvisation and arranging, the result is becoming a full time singer and songwriter that is able to control all the phases in the production of an album: from pre-production (composing and arranging), to production (recording) and post-production (editing, mixing, mastering, releasing, publishing and performing).
