No matter what your instrument, a thorough understanding of rhythmic notation is essential. In order to be prepared to read through any piece of music, the serious musician must be able to recognize, read and play rhythms fluidly. Rhythms Volume Two is a further investigation of rhythms, this time using the sixteenth note as the unit of measure. There are 108 pages of rhythm patterns structured in this way. All examples use one pitch, allowing the student to focus completely on time and rhythm on the instrument of their choice.

Contemporary Rhythms Volume Two develops your knowledge of highly syncopated rhythms written with contemporary notation. A serious musician must not only be able to recognize, read and play rhythms fluidly but be aware of alternate notation used especially in contemporary classical music but found more and more in all styles of music. This volume concentrates on sixteenth note rhythms and the rhythmic patterns often associated with that rhythmic level. Each exercise uses one pitch which allows the student to focus completely on time and rhythm. Exercises use modern innovations common to twentieth century notation, thereby familiarizing the student with the most sophisticated systems likely to be encountered in the course of a musical career. Midifiles for all exercises can be downloaded from the the muse-eek.com "Member's Area" to facilitate learning.

This book is unique in that it has all the possible chord voicings on the top four strings of the guitar. These are the voicings that are used in funk, rock, R&B, and jazz. A chord progression section is also included and allows the student to use the common progressions of a blues and minor blues. The information presented in Volume Two builds on the theoretical material presented in Volume One, but also introduces highly advanced reharmonization concepts. Intermediate students will find the progressions challenging, while the reharmonization section will be a most rewarding exercise for the advanced student. This book is the required text at both New York University and Princeton University.

That St. Louis Thing is an American story of music, race relations and baseball. Here is over 100 years of the cityOs famed musical development -- blues, jazz and rock -- placed in the context of its civil rights movement and its political and ecomomic power. Here, too, are the cityOs people brought alive from its foundation to the racial conflicts in Ferguson in 2014. The panorama of the city presents an often overlooked gem, music that goes far beyond famed artists such as Scott Joplin, Miles Davis and Tina Turner. The city is also the scene of a historic civil rights movement that remained important from its early beginnings into the twenty-first century. And here, too, are the sounds of the crack of the bat during a century-long love affair with baseball."
