Rhythm Lessons for Beginners

Wow! I haven't posted since February! Well, I have lots of great excuses, including that I've helped my wife launch D'Lolly's Uptown Bakeshop here in Washington Heights. But you don't want to hear about my lame excuses, you want new video music lessons!

Here are the latest, some beginner music theory lessons on rhythm. They compliment each other, so I highly recommend you watch both!

In this short video, I explain what the BEAT in music is and how metronomes are used to play along with the beat.

In this short video, I explain the difference between kinds of music notes (whole, half, quarter, eighth) and their relation to the beat and to each other.

Also, I forgot to post a guitar lesson video back in February about the 12 Bar Blues progression in the key of A. There's also a 12 Bar Blues progression play-along video here.

Enjoy!
