Summary of This Method
Rhythms to read and play for instrumentalists and singers.
Designed as a series structured in 4 levels, this rhythmic reading method guides the musician through a clear progression: from the basics of swing to the more distinctive worlds of contemporary music, including funk and Brazilian rhythms (Bossa-nova, Samba, etc.). The proposed work targets both rhythmic understanding and groove feel, aiming for precise, flexible, and musically credible execution.
Suitable for beginners as well as advanced musicians, the method is an excellent tool to develop consistency, coordination, and tempo stability. Singers will find a concrete way to anchor rhythm and refine articulation, while instrumentalists can strengthen their placement and enrich their rhythmic vocabulary to support improvisation. Overall, it helps improve reading comfort, better anticipate syncopations, and establish a naturally "swinging" phrasing.
Rhythm n' Jazz fits perfectly into a Jazz Music Theory course and becomes a valuable working companion for ensemble practice (big band, combos, etc.). It also complements the rhythmic training of students from classical or contemporary music backgrounds by providing concrete stylistic references and essential execution reflexes. Bilingual French-English publication.
