More Description
What all good musicians have in common is a good rhythm and meter. Some may think that the musicality of professional musicians is unreachable however, in reality, keeping a good rhythm and meter is just a part of developing good musicianship. Rhythm and Meter are complicated ideas but this book will help you to understand them better. Read on for everything you need to know about rhythmic structure or polyrhythmic concepts when starting your creative process and discover how rhythms are subdivided, time signatures, and learning about the compound and odd time.
The book is divided into 2 parts:
Part 1 is a progressive set of exercises that thoroughly covers Simple and Compound Meters. Starting with basic rhythms in 4/4 time, the book immediately trains the student to play and count rhythms in 2/4, 3/4, and 5/4. The latter half does the same for compound meters such as 6/8, 9/8, 12/8, and 15/8.
Part 2 is a progressive set of exercises that thoroughly covers complex meters. Picking up where part left off, part 2 trains the musician to be able to read and play in Complex Meters such as 7/8, 9/8, 11/8, 7/16, 9/16, and 11/16.
