MYP 2 - Rhythm & Ragtime












We have learned about notation values, rhythmic devices like syncopation and musical styles such as ragtime.

Scott Joplin was a Ragtime composer - he wrote famous pieces such as Maple Leaf Rag and The Entertainer.

We are learning more about syncopation through Howard Goodhalls' How music works - Rhythm.

Today, we will finish the video, and continue to learn our parts for The Entertainer.


Check out Stevie Wonder for pulse, tempo, syncopation,accents and cross rhythms:
