Building a solid foundation in music reading starts with rhythm!

This eBook explores the most commonly used combinations of music rhythms. You will also learn about extended compound meters, triplets, polyrhythms, and much more.

Why do I need this eBook?

Reading music involves two distinct skills: reading notes up and down the staff, and reading rhythm from left to right on the staff. When we practice music reading, we usually focus mostly on notes and spend little time with rhythm. Developing an intuitive sense of pulse and meter takes time, that is why these exercises are so valuable. This eBook helps you focus on rhythm alone and develop the coordination you need to read and play with rhythm.
