Hi this is amazing i have a little problem sometimes to play sixteenth the most problem for me is when you get sixteenth rest keep posting more videos like these god bless you and your family
The first example of fitting in a sixteenth note triplet into an eighth note was perfect for me. I’ll know exactly how it sounds and how to count it. Thank you so much.
Thanks for the help.😊 hardest is the polyrhythm. A video on just them would be good? Will have to watch this again as there's lots of information to take in.👍thanks!
Although I am learning to play the cello your lessons are invaluable in making me able to understand the parts played by other instruments on the score.
Thanks a lot Tim. Will you make a video about syncopation? I know that it is changing the rhythm to make the piece more interesting. Have a nice summer…
Awsome video👍I play guitar and I find I have to go to non guitar player channels to learn about practicing rythm, I love playing Heavy Metal chugging rythyms and you just don't see much out there on guitar channels teaching rythm. Could you make a video on how to practice sixteenth note permutations?
This is very helpful- I'd like to hear the metronome in the background while you are playing the notes- especially with the syncopated rhythms. I always get thrown off when the metronome doesn't tick on the start of a note. With the Metronome app, you can sub-divide the beats within a time signature- not sure if that's helpful for a beginner or not. If you do a video on metronomes, looking at some of these options and how to apply them might be valuable (?)
4:3 is wrong. You don't play even 16ths because you divided the triplets by two and tried to place them on these subdivisions. Total subdivisions should be 12, and the "4ths" fall each 3 and the "3ds" fall each 4.
Thanks for pointing this out. I went back and checked and sure enough the sixteenths were uneven. I was able to fix it with a little extra practice with the metronome focusing on the sixteenths. The only thing I don't quite understand is when you said dividing the triplet into two. Can you clarify? This will help me with explaining this in the future so students can nail down this rhythm.
You divided each note of the triplet in two, so you had in total 6 places for notes to exist (6 16ths). You can't divide 3 or 6 by 4 and have a whole number. Basically, this thing is just maths, it's not a musical problem. Read about the Lowest Common Denominator.
Congrats in counting towards the beat, attacking on the and. But when you count out loud, you are counting from the beat ??? Try counting to the beat: 1| [and 2; [and 3; [and 4; [and 1. There's a ghost "and" before the first beat of the piece :-) Counting the music visually is accepting the limitations of 18th century typography. Counting isn't math and it isn't visual. I really appreciated your notion of attack although it was inconsistent with the visual counting from the beat.cheers from Ottawa Canada.
I am having difficulty playing subdivisions combined in each other, especially 32nd in 16ths. What would be a good syllable system to mix n match like that?
When I play from 6/8 to 12/8 , I always get confused about the speed and correlate it with metronome set for 6/8. Similarly when I am playing 4/4 in one measure and next measure is 6/8. I cannot correlate the rhythm here. It would be of great help if you can clear this concept for us. Anybody else who has the same isdue, please comment so that he get the attention.😊
Great content. But you've messed up a polyrhythm yourself in an example of 3 vs 4. Because you've simplified the approach too much. You should subdivide a quarter note to 12 subdivisions, then play the right hand on subdivisions 1,5,9 and the left on 1,4,7,10. And repeat a lot to remember the rhythm. The end result then sounds much more interesting, while both hands play a steady subdivided beat. (Your left hand doesn't - you've sped up the first two notes.)
But Tim, I can get the 3:2 with just doing the rhythm pattern. But a real brain scrambler is when I try to use your 5 note scale warm-up drills, I go through with the different rhythms but when I try to do the 3:2, you have to keep the sense of humour.
I watched this again, and I'm still working on the 3:2 polyrhythm on five note warmup. It's getting easier...slowly. I'm committed to taking the time needed. I just finished my John Thompson level one method book, for the second time. I was able to concentrate more on the rhythm patterns. And I used your techniques and I breezed through much better than the first time. Many of the pieces were in either 3/4 or 6/8 time. That might be a good one to talk about syncopation.
That's great. I've been trying to learn by ear...I really want to develop my creativity, which I know needs a lot of work. Could you tell me how you learned? I really enjoy sitting at the piano with a song in my head, and not always looking at the "dots" on the page.

I checked and it matches for me. I did just clip out a part of the video an hour ago so maybe TH-cam is being weird while the edit goes through. I would check back later to see if it is fixed.

Thanks for the suggestion. That is probably a good idea since I could have easily added in some examples and pieces for polyrhythms.
Although I am learning to play the cello your lessons are invaluable in making me able to understand the parts played by other instruments on the score.
Awesome to hear that! Cheers
Thanks a lot Tim. Will you make a video about syncopation? I know that it is changing the rhythm to make the piece more interesting. Have a nice summer…
I have a hard time wrapping my head around some rhythms but you explained this SO well! Please make more videos explaining rhythm if you can ❤
Are you a girl?
Rhythm is something I have to improve upon. Thank you for these videos. They are so helpful.
OK!😁
This is SO helpful! You break down counting rhythms and make it simple and understandable. Thank you!

Thank you so much for explaining rhythms so simple and clear 🎉

More syncopation please and thank you for this video!
I would love a lesson on syncopated rhythms!
Listen to Mahavishu Orchestra. Not vids and books. Slap your knees. Experiment.
じ〜んせい楽ありゃ苦〜もあるさ〜♪
You are da MAN. This is such an important topic.
Great 👍👍👍 explained in simple method ! Keep up the spirit ❤
Excellent lesson. Thanks.
This was so simple and informative.
thank you very much for a very valuable lesson
Great stuff!!!!!!….piano teacher!

@@Ketentzoglou Thanks for getting back to me. I didn't realize that they had to be divided into 12, but it makes sense now.
Yes K, that's correct. Subdivis are 12. Have a lovely day 😊
U r so right that was LITERALLY 2 16th notes and then 8th notes. Respect!
Thank you
Brilliant!!
I would go with Ravel's Bolero for the first example instead of Imperial March ;)
Good luck everyone 👍
Cool! Thank!

I would like to learn the most difficult rhythm that exists in this world from you all tricky rhythm will be welcome to me thank you
This lesson made me cry. I worry that my failure in high school math has come back to haunt me 😓 Thank you ( I guess )
❤❤❤ thank s lot easy way to count
He’s good!😃
Thanks!
Appreciate that a lot thanks!
@@LessonsOnTheWeb thank YOU! Your lessons are the very best!
I am having difficulty playing subdivisions combined in each other, especially 32nd in 16ths. What would be a good syllable system to mix n match like that?
This rhythm is like Cao Cao's theme in Koei's ROTK VI.
5/4 rhythm. I believe it is the rhythm for Mission Impossible theme song
Wich keyboard do you got
When I play from 6/8 to 12/8 , I always get confused about the speed and correlate it with metronome set for 6/8. Similarly when I am playing 4/4 in one measure and next measure is 6/8.

How to count sixteen triplet note sir
Hi....how to play note 9/8
ay, i did attack points before it was mentioned instinctually when i paused to tap it for myself.
1 straw-ber-ry 2 3 4

1 and-uh-let 2.. etc...
32nd notes?
Is this a math lesson or music lesson

My mind started glazing over half way through because I play by ear.
