    Quarter note (crotchet) triplets can be a tricky rhythm to get your head around at first.
    Many people play them too fast or too slow, or unevenly.
    This video demonstrates a trick using 8th note triplets, which will help you play quarter triplet rhythms with more precision.
    All exercises in this video are at 70 BPM.

    How I learned that rhythm was to think "Straw-ber-ry". A lot of the rhythms were taught that way.

      It’s insanely easy. It’s just a base of 3 instead of 4 wherever you want. It should feel natural like you are just playing with swing.

    Transposed to guitar just play the downstroke of the eighth notes and mute the upstrokes by using an eight stroke rest.

      I'm using "pop" broadly for all popular music. Maybe you're a classical/band person, but if you're listening to anything outside that realm, you're probably hearing this rhythm. @@Ferrothorn462

    I would like a video where you can show me how to 3 half notes triplet

    • @rickylefebvre
      @rickylefebvre Рік тому +1

      So I count quarter note triplets like in the video. Where I count normal triplets as "1 and uh 2 and uh 3 and uh 4 and uh" (because it's the easiest for me to say at faster tempos). So my counting quarter note triplets becomes "1 - uh - and - 3 - uh - and," and on the rare occasion I've counted half note triplets it's become "1 - - - and - - - uh." Where I feel each dash there as a normal eighth note triplet that I'm not playing, but counting the actual notes that I'm playing in my head. Or simply count all the eighth note triplets in my head and just emphasize the ones I'm playing, which is frequently easier. So quarter note triplets become "ONE and UH two AND uh THREE and UH four AND uh" and half note triplets are "ONE and uh two AND uh three and UH four and uh."

      Subdivizing is the healthy way to learn rythms. It is true that a lot of teachers give that advice (saying what you said), but you only get bad habit. It won't help you as a pianist to play polyrythms like 3 over 4.

    • @adultgamingnetwork3186
      @adultgamingnetwork3186 Рік тому

      @@j.thomas1420 that's a logical fallacy, false equivalence...
      3 over 4 doesn't have anything to do with counting a triple or swing feel as you can play a straight 3 over 4...
      however if you want to be a an arrogant prick and just hear yourself talk we could say the act of saying/ playing "triplet" over the 4 count is a polyrhthym as well as soon as you tap your foot... you're argument is dumb and just to argue. If that was the point of the video, playing polymeter than he should have just said that. The ultimate goal is to count a straight triple
      This is about the feel of triple and swing time not playing polymeter and there are the same tricks for that was well.

      You can "just say" tri pel let only if you know what a triplet is and where to place each syllable.
      You could also use any 3 syllable words, like blueberries, strawberries and other berries, make your playing more fruity..
