Do you get stuck trying to get past your initial 8 or 16 bar idea? An effective contrasting B section can go a long way to helping you to sustain your listener’s attention, as well as helping to extend a piece.
In this video, I break down a variety of techniques you can use, which can help to ensure your B section carefully achieves a balance between contrast as well as some familiarity.

B Sections are even more of a challenge than coming up with the original melody or chord progression so this is quite helpful. Would like to see a similar tutorial for a rock composition 😁🎸

Yes I remember really struggling with them in the past as well. Haha I have never really written a rock composition...I might have to have a go!

Beautiful writing, and perfect content for me. Everything I’ve done so far is just one long repeated A section with different layers. I’ll look forward to applying this. Thanks!

maybe you could talk a little about the fantastic program that encompasses the choir and the grand and "Virtual" orchestra that you are using, whoever had anything to do with that, got it right. everything sounds good when that virtual orchestra and choir starts up.

7:11 Hi, this is a good advice, however i noticed that when i try to add new chords, it almost feels like the song doesn't sound ''coherent'' anymore, do you have any tips on how to write a new chord progression that connects to the previous one without making it sounds like a new song?
