Finding the Rhythm in Music : The Art of 'Counting Music'

In Marla Swift's professional life as a performer and teacher, she has come across a great majority of people who have difficulty in counting.

Counting music has always been a difficult subject to teach, but in Finding the Rhythm, the author has successfully translated her knowledge of the subject into lessons for students of any musical instrument or application.

The book is ultra simple in the beginning but leaves nothing out.

Every point is covered. It moves through in consistent steps so that once the player reaches the harder rhythms, it all makes sense because music is simple arithmetic but with the added difficulty of co-ordinating a beat.

Illustrations with colourful graphics are placed throughout the book to attract the attention of all ages.
