Product Description

Which of the three elements of music: melody, harmony and rhythm do you think is the most important? That’s a good question. My answer is rhythm. That’s why I called it “Fascinating Rhythm”.

After studying this eBook, you might agree with me.

In this eBook, you will learn how to read & write rhythms, how to improvise rhythms, play in different styles, but most important…how to play in the pocket!

The data in this book applies to any musician at any level of expertise regardless of what instrument or style of music he/she plays. This is invaluable as a reference book for private lessons or as a textbook for classroom study.
