Hey students, Just wanted to let you know that there is a Spring Sale going on right now for the courses over on my website www.pianolessonsontheweb.com . You can learn much more about piano, music theory, ear training and anything else you need to become a well rounded musician. You can use code "youtube" during checkout for an additional 15% off!
Another great video, Tim. Just started almost two years ago at 49 and it is good to go back to brush up. I still struggle with timing here and there. P.S. Nice insert from Revenge of the Nerds!
trying to learn for the 1000th time how to do this counting and this has been the most helpful video by far. I only wish I would've found it earlier :). thank you.
i cant believe i understood what you were saying. its been hard for me to understand the other peope video . i dont play piano, but it will help me with my violiin playing - thanks

I wonder if «we» don't get the thing «wrong». We start from those round notes, then the beats and shorter subdivisions. Basically, only a limited number of time have «a name» and that name is a number, it hardly ever goes further than 6. I remember attending a line dancing class, counting rhythm was an necessity too though the teacher had a completely different approach : it was counting «naming» every subdivisions equally. What I mean is that she would count quarter note as «we» do 1 2 3 4 but for eighth notes she counted from 1 to 8, and for sixtenth notes from 1 to 16. She could also do «weird» things such as not resetting the count at the end of a bar. Funny thing it WORKED and nobody needed an explanation whether they suck at it or not. I really wonder if we do it right. Sure one can get used to it, I mostly do, but I feel like it is not right. Ultimately in a bar we have to count based on the tiniest subdivision, our counting/naming of time is pretty coarse so we introduce a lot of «and» and «e» and «a». My gut feeling is the dance teacher is equally hot and right we should accept to count further than 4 or 6 a lot more often. Going at least up to eight before introducing «and» sound like a good idea. I'm not so sure about sixteen because numbers pronunciation get longer, but in my language and in English up to twelve is ok (slightly easier in French). As for accents, 1 is one and then it si mostly habits.
So, if I’m playing a piece which makes extensive use of 32nd notes, and using a ridiculously fast tempo, to learn this effectively as a beginner, I should (1) slow the tempo down to something I can comfortably play and (2) I should use 1/e/+/a subdivision while keeping in mind that using this subdivision for 32nd notes, I am counting to every other note?
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH thats why its called a quater note not a single note. Cause it literally takes 1/4 of the whole "Bar" thing no wait i fucked up it takes a quater of 4/whatever I guess the top one is the number of beats the lower on is the resolution or something? basically how detailed the music wants to be written? idk

Hi,what kind of keyboard do you have
Beginner here! This is so helpful to understand the notes on a piano. Thank you so much.
You have no idea how much you’ve helped me learn the piano. Thank you so much for this video.
neglected understanding rhythm in a formal sense for awhile now relied solely on my ear glad I found this channel
Was getting my tempo all wrong today and this video totally helped me understand what to do
You are a good teacher, continue with the same spirit and God richly bless you sir ❤

Great explanation!

I really like your teaching ability. I don'
t play an instrument but use the rhythm lessons to help my singing.
Thank you very much again for your work! ❤
many thanks for providing this video, it is really helpful
Making some sense, thank you. But this rhythm and time signature thing is still a mystery for me☺️🤔
This video series is excellent!

That was an amazing video 🎉 thank you
Wow thank you
Hi Tim, you forgot to do a 5/4 time signature. Have you previously done a video on this time signature by any chance? 😊
No I don't believe I've ever covered that actually. I'll take note of it though.
Thanks Tim and for all your informative videos
Thanks for sharing.i have way long to go
This was brilliant, thanks a million
