Instructions
Step 1
Listen carefully to the song several times. It is not always possible to understand the meaning and beauty of music immediately after acquaintance. If you own musical terminology, then analyze for yourself the tonality of the song, the arrangement, break the composition into parts, trace the overall harmony. However, this is only necessary if you are writing a review for a highly specialized publication, or to order.
Step 2
Specify the style of the song and the sound of the music. Note the quality of the recording, while being careful not to compare it with previous works by the artist. Be sure to tell the reader about what surprised and delighted you while listening. The only exceptions are cases when the whole album is an order of magnitude worse or better than its predecessor. Briefly, preferably in one or two sentences, describe the meaning of the song. Notice the peculiarities of the composition and new trends in the performance.
Step 3
Find out as many details as possible about the song. Perhaps its creation coincided with some significant event in the artist's life. Try to include previously unrevealed facts in your review. At the same time, be objective, insignificant little things will not give your reader any reason to comprehend. Try to analyze the work as something completely new. Don't use clichés or your review will become a clone of millions of other descriptions.
Step 4
Write a review without starting from your personal relationship with the artist. Be honest, regardless of whether you go to every singer's concert or try to bypass his work. The review should not consist only of negative information or praise. Remember that you are writing about the song.
