RHYTHMIC NOTES

RHYTHMIC NOTES is based on a traditional warm up exercise and also helps in learning rhythmic
note values. After a two-measure count-in, the metronome plays through a series of note intervals or
beat divisions. Each one is played for 2 measures before moving on to the next interval level. The
exercise starts with half notes, stepping up through intervals to 16th note, 16th-note triplets or
septuplets, and then back down to half notes again.
