Songwriters, composers or lyricists can meet with ASCAP affiliated music publisher and award winner songwriter Jacques (Mario) Gentil this coming session for a workshop/critiques of their developing songs.

We have 2 types of meetings. The first run every second month while the other each alternate month.

One session gives you a free feedback on your songs by other songwriters and only allocates a maximum of 10 minutes per song. If time allows, more songs can be presented. The other is one where 45 minutes are allocated each song being assessed and reworked where it needs rewriting.

You can bring your guitar along, or any other instrument. A Yamaha keyboard is available for those who would like to make use of.

You can make use of the sound system available to present your song as audio CD. MP3 files from an Ipod for instance can also be plugged in and played.

See 'About Us' for more detail.

Assisted by NEIS (New Enterprise Incentive Scheme), an Australian Government Initiative.
