Bach Rhythmic Studies Ariel J Ramos

Bach Rhythmic Studies is a collection of rhythmic exercises based on well-known pieces by Bach. This book provides a thesaurus of rhythmic motives and phrases of various length, allowing the student to develop a consistent tempo and musicality by extracting meaningful rhythmic statements from a great composer.

This books is designed to be used in different ways, depending upon student's abilities, instrument of choice and layout of the instructor's lessons plans.

An optional iOS application is available on the App Store which provides the student with an interactive experience. Your iPhone will respond to your rhythmic performance in real-time by playing a motive, subject, phrase or song by Bach. You play by shaking your iPhone as if it were a Bell (a Tap button is also included as an alternative way of playing.) At the end of every exercise you will receive a performance Report with your Tempo Deviation, Mistakes and Rhythmic Accuracy. The app includes a metronome and a play button which you can use to play the current exercise.
