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!
