Swinglines: Rhythm, Timing, and Polymeter in Musical Phrasing
English | 2024 | ISBN: 0197659977 | 321 pages | True PDF | 25 MB
The way rhythm is taught in Western classrooms and music lessons is rooted in a centuries-old European approach that favors metric levels within a grand symmetrical grid. Swinglines encourages readers to experience rhythms, even gridded ones, as freewheeling affairs irrespective of the metric hierarchy. At its core, this book is a nuts-and-bolts study of durational comparisons in the context of creative expression.
