Practice Rhythms!

Some of you are a bit shaky on reading performing rhythms.  Don't worry, be happy! And do these rhythms along with me.

If you can do these, you'll do great when you come to read a rhythm for me.

If you can do the rhythm on "ta" (or any other neutral syllable) you'll get most of the credit on that part of the quiz.  If you can do the rhythm AND the conducting pattern you'll get a little more credit, and if you can do the counting system (one-and-two-and, et.c, or one-la-lee, etc.) even more.

You need the practice rhythm sheets I emailed you earlier.

Everything else on the quiz will be like the homework assignments and the dictation exercises we've done in class.  So look through those.  (I will also have you verbally name notes in both clefs for me.)

Here are the SIMPLE METER practice rhythms:
