Description
If you feel that you haven’t been able to grasp the fundamental concepts of rhythm, or want to start learning about it, this course is for you. It breaks everything down concept by concept.This course contains much about the types and durations of notes and rests, various time signatures, counting rhythms within those time signatures, and understanding what straight vs. shuffle rhythms are. It takes the student on a journey discovering the basics of everything in rhythm – everything from sixteenth note triplets all the way up to whole notes, and showing how they are counted in various time signatures. It also shows how math works its way into music using dotted notes and rests, tied notes, and also, time signatures as a fraction. With regards to time signatures, it breaks them down into types of time signatures, and gives a sense of a rhythmic base to them. Lastly, it shows shuffle rhythms vs. straight rhythms to give a comparison of how they are broken down, and how shuffle rhythms is based upon a triplet-type system. All basic elements of rhythm are contained in this course. By the end of this course, a beginner can be sure that they will understand much about the rhythmic area of music that they wouldn’t have understood otherwise.
