The long lost conclusion to the Maar's Music and ‪@johncrownmusic‬ series is finally here: Into the Intro -- starting your new song in a way that captivates the listener's ear can be the most challenging part of songwriting!

That's why it's finally time for Part 6 (of 6) -- of Turning Four Chords into Song Sections. Yes, we have a sense of humour and that's why we decided to end the series with the intro!

Whether you're working on your first or 100th tune, there's value to be found in returning to the fundamentals. Markus Maar and Writer / Producer John Crown have put together a six part series of short, simple and easy to implement tips that will help you develop contrast and build excitement into your song's sections (intro, verse & chorus).

John demonstrates each of the techniques by playing a simple 4 chord progression on an acoustic guitar (with fun & descriptive lyrics).

We hope you'll be inspired to explore these techniques for yourself when you see how quick and easy it is. You may even find yourself listening to songs in a new way once you become aware of these subtle, but powerful tools.

The study of music is one of the greatest pleasures in life and it promotes well being on a deep level. We hope that you'll enjoy this video as part of your musical journey.
