Overview

The duration of notes and silence - that is, how long a musical sound or pause is held-is an essential part of performing, composing, and experiencing music. Many of the chapters in this book are concerned primarily with matters of pitch: scales, intervals, and chords. But without a firm understanding of how these elements interact in time, they lose much of their meaning. This book 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. See if you can identify the melody in its altered form.
