    I am 67 years old and have played music my whole life. I studied briefly at college and privately, I also played with one of Ricks teachers. Rick is by far the best teacher I have come across. I highly recommend his book! 👍👍👍

      @freecitizen2760 4 роки тому +10

      Rhythm IS music.
      Music has 3 components: rhythm, melody and harmony (just those 3 parts).
      Maybe you mean that you understand what pitch is called for based on its location on the staff.
      If you can't read rhythms, then you absolutely cannot read music.

    • @freecitizen2760
      @freecitizen2760 4 роки тому +5

      Prince Westerburg : Remember this:
      there is a BIG difference between being able to SLOWLY read/decipher music and being able to sight-read “Flight of The Bumblebee” or Frank Zappa’s famous “The Black Page”.
      Recognizing what pitch/note it is on the staff (both treble clef and bass clef) is pretty straightforward.
      Recognizing rhythms is the complicated part.
      If you want to make learning rhythm more fun then get a drum (played with sticks) or a hand drum.
      Get a book on rhythms, a metronome (or a metronome app.), and maybe an app. that teaches rhythms.
      I learned rhythms by working with a machine called “The TapMaster” (pre-computer days).
