We use basic musical skills to figure out rhythms that move one note at a time.<\/p>\n
But what about when we see trickier rhythms? How do we count music that has many voices all at the same time?<\/p>\n
Classical guitar use one musical staff (the lines in standard musical notation). But we play bass lines, melodies, and accompaniment parts, all at the same time<\/a>.<\/p>\n So the music looks complex on the page. Notes and rhythms are stacked one atop the other.<\/p>\n We need to understand the rhythm of everything we play. To this end, we can clap and count aloud.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
