RHYTHM PRACTICE
DOTTED QUARTER NOTES

  • Start by printing the exercises & writing in the counting (click here to go to an easy to print page)
  • When you finish, click here to see the correct counting
  • Then practice saying the counting while you set up the beat.
  • Click the play bar below the example to hear that line played (there is a measure of clicks to set the beat before the example begins).
  • Try setting up the beat & saying the counting while listening to the MIDI example (the flute is playing a concert Bb)
  • When you get comfortable, put on a recording in the same time signature & try setting up the beat & saying the counting while listening to the music - stay with beat one!
