Rhythm Workouts

Level One Rhythm Workouts teaches students Primary Rhythms, giving them the strongest foundation of musicianship: the ability to read and play rhythms independently against steady pulse. We recommend starting here for beginning and intermediate music ensembles. The Primary Rhythms taught are: quarter notes, half notes, dotted half notes, whole notes, eighth notes, dotted-quarter eighth notes, sixteenth notes, eighth-two sixteenths, two sixteenths-eight, dotted eighth sixteenth, and triplet rhythms. The book is sequenced for regular review of material, and students remained engaged through clapping, singing, and playing their rhythms. With built in tracking systems, concepts are broken down into incremental, fun, and attainable challenges for students to enjoy.
