Georges Dandelot

Etude Du Rythme Vol. 4

Étude du Rythme is an educational tool proposed by Georges Dandelot (1895-1975), a French composer, agreeing with the concept that rhythm is the foundation on which melody and harmony are then layered. It was conceived toprogressively teach musicians how to deal with complicated rhythms such as those used by Bartok or Ravel. This volume is the fourth out of five composing a step-by-step method to learn and master rhythm in music. It follows on theknowledge acquired in the three first volumes and uses complex combinations of rhythms and melody with binary and tertiary tempos.
