Rhythm Improv Games (with Jeffrey Agrell)
Dive into rhythmic improvisation in this segment of Jeffrey Agrell's Musical U masterclass on "Exploring Rhythmic Improv"!
In this beginning section, Jeffrey introduces a rhythm vocabulary, using simple hand-drumming as a way to experiment and explore.
Then he shows how you can start improvising creatively just by mixing up bits of that rhythm vocab with accents, rests, note length and meter.
Note: If you're listening to the audio only, you won't be able to see the patterns he's showing on screen, but you'll still be able to follow along.
You might want to hit 'pause' and give yourself some extra time, or run through the exercises again afterwards.
Remember to have fun with it!

If it makes you laugh, GOOD! (with Jeffrey Agrell)
We’re joined by Jeffrey Agrell, a returning guest on the show, and one of our absolute favourite music educators. Jeffrey has authored half a dozen books providing "games" which serve as a gateway into creativity and improvisation - even for the most buttoned-up, perfectionist classical players!
In this short conversation before his Musical U masterclass on Rhythm Improv Games, Jeffrey shares:
• Why one of his best character traits is... having a very high tolerance for looking foolish!
• An elegantly simple definition of Creativity: "it just means 'do something different'."
• And why something you play seeming silly or making you laugh is actually a GOOD thing.
