hm i was just thinking about this earlier today actually
im kinda inspired to write a new instrumental piece atm after listening to some joe satriani and I came to the conclusion that id need to write some basic rhythm part...so knowledge of chords and their construction would be helpful
but ontop of that i would need to write some melody line, so an understanding of keys and scales is what id need
once you understand the seperate elements like scales, then how those scales can be turned into modes, then how those modes can be used to generate your relative chords, then imo you could write just about anything because youd understand how it all fits together
