Listen "Rhythm Trainer Series #3: dotted rhythms, triplets, syncopation"
Episode Synopsis
Today's Rhythm Trainer episode focuses on dotted rhythms, triplets, and syncopation. Musician/teacher Laurel Thomsen demonstrates how to subdivide each note value and guides you in practicing playing each figure with a metronome. If you're pretty solid with the basic quarter notes and eight notes, but need help when it comes to more unusual rhythms and note values this might be just the thing for you.
