Reviews from Australia/New Zealand Seminar Tour April 2010
Thank you very much for organizing such a
fantastic event.I really enjoyed
Beth's teaching style and found that I learned so much from the
practical aspects of the class. Beth delivered some great content
that went beyond the scope of songwriting. Her genuine commitment to her own
processes highlighted the wholistic nature of being a songwriter and how the
practice of songwriting has so much to do with how you perform your life.
I look forward to participating in more events in the future and will
be sure to recommend your courses to colleagues, friends and family. Thanks
again.

Thank you so much for making all of this
happen. Beth Nielsen Chapman was so generous with her time and insight. She was
inspirational and so down to earth. The venue, the sound and facilities were
great. Thanks Clare.

Thanks for bringing Beth out Clare.I think one of the strengths of her
workshop was how she embodied her process of being with the creative spirit -
you don’t get that experience from a book!
She’s also a great balance to all the tools we’ve been working with.
Putting all these skills in a greater context of inspiration and taking
the time to allow that connection. Then watering it with play and exploration.
Love and Light

Hi Clare - Thanks times 10 to the power of
235689.24997 - for organizing the BNC workshop - Sal and I spent about one and
a half hours at Southern Cross last night just debriefing. Beth is a wonderful
teacher - and I taught secondary for almost 40 years plus have observed a lot
at that level + completed about 4 long graduate studies programs + attended
about 10 songwriting workshops over 20 years --- and that
workshop was outstanding - we were totally engaged. Superb combination of
practical hints for all + gorgeous performances from Beth and the others + the
ethereal philosophy brought down to a mere mortal's level + the amazing way she
analysed the 12 singer songwriters without fear - and had so much positive to
say about each one.

Just a quick thank-you to APRA and of
course Beth, My son and I attended the workshop last night at JMC Melbourne (my
son is 19, me 55, but music brings us together) and it was fantastic. Not only
was it informative, entertaining but also very insightful and not just with
respect to song writing, but aspects of life itself, which of course puts you
in a better space to write songs.
Thank-you again............

Thanks for the email and thanks so much for
bringing Beth to NZ.This may
sound over the top, but for me the weekend was life-changing.
Beth is incredible. I feel kind of blessed to have been touched by her
wonderful spirit, her generosity, her experience. And I know everything
about my songwriting and my approach to my art has changed forever. Hope our
paths cross again sometime.
