The Musicarta Beat and Rhythm Workbook

A methodical approach to keyboard syncopation

Well-developed beat and rhythm skills are essential for the modern keyboard player.

Compared to classical music, popular music nearly always has a strong rhythmic component - the hand patterning in modern keyboard playing often looks as much like conga drumming as anything else.

In normal piano teaching, the development of natural rhythm skills is often left entirely to chance, leaving many people – musicians among them – with a fatalistic belief that, when it comes to rhythm skills and mastering syncopation, you have either ‘got it’ or you haven’t.

That's not true!

The Musicarta Beat and Rhythm Workbook contains three tried and tested lesson series which have proved that, with the right material and methodical, incremental lessons, anybody can master syncopated rhythms unattainable with the default try-and-try-again approach.
