    Did you find this lesson TOO TRICKY and are looking for something that introduces you to rhythm from the very beginning? Well, I have you covered with "How to Count Basic Rhythms" which you can watch right here: ua-cam.com/video/x3CK4-G5Eg4/v-deo.html

    @TGrems-dg8qn Рік тому +8

    I’m a newbie to playing anything. I was actually gifted an organ. So, I’ve been taking lessons, for about 10 months now, to learn music notes, cords…etc. I had my first recital the other day. Scared to death, but, I managed to get through it. I’m not orchestra ready, by any means but, I’m trying. I really want to learn. So, right now, I want to learn everything I can. My main struggle is, playing the cords at the same time I’m playing the notes with my right hand. I am right hand dominant, so, it seems like my left brain doesn’t want to cooperate with the right side of my brain. But, I am learning, which is a plus for me…I’m over 60 years old, so, it is true…you can teach an ole dog new tricks. Praise God 🙏😁

    Great lesson. I’m a seasoned, uneducated, drummer. I had a good amount of natural ability which means I could play a basic 4/4 beat as soon as I sat behind a kit. I progressed quickly and within three months I was playing classic rock in a ban in clubs. Admittedly I wasn’t playing it very well but in the mind of a 21 year old I was the next Neil Peart in the making. I thought that natural ability was a blessing. It was not a blessing but a curse for an undisciplined know it all young adult without a hands on mentor. Being 21 I could count and subdivide 80% of the time. (Product of Detroit education system) But what did I need to read music or even know what rudiments were. I didn’t see the need. I was in the army and set the kit aside for 20 years. Ten years of war and a good deal of ptsd and survivor guilt later I decided to commit to earning a living playing music. A great deal older and wiser I now see the difference between being good and being great at my craft, drums. The saying “you’re only as good as your basics” comes to mind and, being as cool as I was, I had no need for basics. WRONG!! So, I’m learning and becoming an expert at the basics so I can progress. For better understanding I use all sources, not just drumming and you’ve helped a lot. Thank you.

    • @eladpeleg745
      @eladpeleg745 17 днів тому

      Totally agree. I'm learning piano and I just did not learn the basics because I was undisciplined or something and up till now I was too ashamed to even endure learning the basics. Learning with difficulty things that 7 year olds are taught is no pleasure for the ego but it has to be done😢

To answer your question-i am playing a harp piece with 4/4 signature, going from 16th notes to 2 triplets and a glissando for beat 3 and 4. I've watched multiple tutorials, and this one is by far the best. Thank you so much!

    I have spent 2 days practicing a section in my self learning trying to figure how to play these with the proper rhythm and i literally just asked God to help me to learn this because i found i was anxious about it even when i was doing other things around the house, and i came across this video first thing when i searched for how to play 1/8 notes and 1/16 notes. This is exactly what i needed! Thank you!

  • @DesertRat332
    @DesertRat332 Рік тому +15

    Great Lesson! I used to find the mix of eighth and sixteenth notes connected by a bar confusing. Also, I used to wonder why it was always an eighth note following a doted quarter. When you break the notes down into the lowest common denominator and count that way it all makes sense. Thank-you! Your videos continue to get better.
    Maybe you could do this in other time signatures? Like 6/8 time? I see many of these examples in that time signature. Thank-you.

    Thank you Tim for the awesome presentation and modelling of the 7 Rhythm Patterns. 8th notes and 16th notes within the same measure was a struggle for me prior to watching your video. Triples is another area you clarified for me. Words alone can not express my gratitude for your sharing the lesson with us. 👍👍👍
