From humble beginnings in murky, Liverpool clubs in the early sixties, four songwriters emerged who would change the course of popular music The Beatles. Within only a decade they created an arsenal of songs which set the template for all popular music that followed, and, over half a century later, their music still beats with the same vitality, pangs with the same melancholy and grips with the same fervour.
How is this possible? What mystical components were fused to create these extraordinary emotions? Why are they still so influential today?
The Songwriting Secrets of The Beatles sets out to answer these questions. Chord sequences, melodies, harmonies, rhythms and structures are all examined in a clear and readable style, unlocking the musical secrets within - not just for advanced musicians, but anyone who has ever felt the power of these songs for themselves.
Printed music and lyrics feature within the text allowing rhythms and melodies to be analysed in detail within each chapter.
The Songwriting Secrets of The Beatles is essential for any musician who has marvelled at The Beatles creative intelligence; a new and perceptive analysis of both the most enduring and captivating songs of our age.
