Description:
A good sense of rhythm is important for your timing as a singer - but more importantly, it’s important for your understanding and appreciation of music as a whole!
Join Camille for this three part tutorial. In part one, we’ll cover the difference between rhythm and beat - often used interchangeably, but they are distinct! In part two, we’ll cover tempo and meter (also called time signature). And in part three, we’ll learn some specific exercises and practices to improve your timing.
