A Little History...
The ways in which we approach songwriting today originated in ancient Greece in the form of lyric poetry.
Poets typically sang their verses aloud, accompanied by a harp, lyre, or other instruments. Lyric poetry found inspiration in feelings, personal perspective, and figurative language, making for less literal and more symbolic, sound-driven works.
​
The structured nature of Greek poetry, laid the foundation for the art of songwriting as we know it today.
