Rhythm Composition Terms and Definitions

Rhythm comes from natural things

rhythm is even in music when you can’t hear it

most beats are divided by 2,3, or 4

accent, pulse, sub-division

accents can put emphasis on one or two notes to make it sound very different

syncopation is a musical slight of hand that makes it sound more mischievous and playful

the elastication of syncopation became jazz

cross-rhythm is music’s party trick. its the overlay of one pattern over another

in Cuban music, the melody and bass line are ahead

the Latin push has become very common nowadays

One of My Favorite Rhythms (Beats)

I like this progression because I learned to play the drum part

the 1st to the 4th measures are exactly the same
