Reading Rhythms
Reading rhythms involves recognizing and understanding the pattern of beats and durations in music and text. It’s about perceiving how long notes or words are held and how they relate to each other over time. In music, this means distinguishing between long and short sounds, creating a sense of tempo and flow. In reading, it helps in understanding phrasing, emphasis, and pacing of sentences. Developing good rhythm skills allows for more expressive and accurate interpretation, whether in performance or comprehension, by aligning with underlying temporal structures.
