#20 Rhythm & Clapping: More Advanced Rhythm, Beats & Clapping

[YueSakuraKirei]

at 7:56-8:00, i laugh so hard xD. BTW, all of your piano lesson videos helps me sooo much! Thank you very very much for teaching us :)

[mychannel116]

So do you like blueberies or strawberies ??

[lesslove12]

andrew you think you can upload a video on cut time' measures?

[CookiesaAnMilk]

thats a man who loves his teaching lol..got him smiling and dancing=D

[taopivot1]

Ummm..... Not to be rude, but this must be a VERY classically educated dude. These things are better understood through music that is solely based off of a triplet fill. Not really a good advanced teacher.... Strawberry, Bluebbbbruhgsdfhgilefukhj

[Earpollution121]

Dude has some bad ass hair....

[jonasxxxx]

nice video thank you

[silversnow2008]

Do you have any book suggestion for practicing clapping exercises or how do we practice on a regular basis?

[hiuche]

This is very helpful! Thank you!

[junjunho]

beginning of the video, it says lesson # 11 ? lol...

[Lypur]

@junjunho yep...that was a mistake I didn't notice until later. When I did these I was editing all day every day for a few weeks.

[junjunho]

@Lypur yeah, thats fine, doesnt really make a difference...but this might be off topic, but im 14 and i think ur super awesome!! THANKSSSS (love your jokes ahah)

[Tomd1013]

@Lypur if u were editing all day everyday how did u do ur daily sight reading? :0

[Lypur]

@Tomd1013 Hehe...*shh* I didn't do it... (it's a secret)

[deadmau5131997]

@Lypur hey Lypur when we do our scales to we do them in sync (together) with the left and right hand? 

[jsax29]

an easier way to count the 16 notes is to say( one e and tha ) on each one...:)

[iJellyRoll]

almost. (: it's 1 e + a. he's teaching it kind of wrong.

[dwax25]

i agree cos i didnt know anything before i start looking at his videos

[richnvicks]

This man must be commended and thanked for all his time!! Thanks

[myholename]

things to me always make more sense on paper so something i thought of years ago for the Chriplets one way to explain them is:

stretch the two 8th notes into 1&a2&a

then play the chriplets on 1 then the first "a" then on the last &, so it makes sense on paper and is easilly understood.

[justisanchez]

triplets?

[myholename]

well sorry i wrote that at 4 in the morning,

but ok ill give u that one i messed up

[snowypetrel]

What a helpful, warmly presented lesson. Man, you're pedagogic!

[Brittaniaya]

im on lesson 36 now

[gamble777888]

I'm gonna be a hell of a piano player by the end of next year, thanks to this man.

[Brittaniaya]

i noticed that the more lessons i go on the fewer the people get on lesson 1 a bunch of people then it kept downgrading i guess people cant have the time to practice the piano and they really arent divoated

[crazycat947]

I noticed the decrease in views as the lessons go on also.

[frankenstein01]

This really should be entitled "Basic". Good luck to the newbies

[Racerdew]

or you could just count triplets how you should : 1 triplet 2 triplet 3 triplet 4 triplet. that way you know which triplet your counting, while staying on tempo. forget that blueberry shit. you just dont count higher than 6. i guess you can, but i dont. if im counting higher than 6 triplets i just start back at one. im also a drummer so this is so elementary.

[chronoisworking]

@Racerdew there is no right or wrong way to do anything for a start, and second if you count triplets as 1 + a 2 + a 3 + a 4 + a then you can work with triplet partials etc as well and not be limited as saying 1 triplet 2 triplet limits you. :)

[Racerdew]

@chronoisworking YES, ofcourse there are other ways to count it. I prefer breaking up the triplet like I said... 1-trip-let 2-trip-let ect. It might even be easier to learn by counting 1-ta-ta 2-ta ta ect. But yeah, It's all the same. whatever helps you learn mang. I think this guy's method of explaing might be difficult for uneducated people new to music to understand, or atleast apply in a practical musical situation. Just my opinion...

[yootoobboobboob]

"Strawberry" and "blueberry" are not good choices because it takes too long to say "straw" and "blue", and the last syllable,, "-ry", is not stressed, so it goes too fast. Instead of that, maybe try "Wa-shing-ton".

[yootoobboobboob]

Triplets are not hard. Stop saying they are hard. Everything in music is triplets or couplets.

[brain1012]

They're tricky beats to grasp at first for almost any beginners.

[jcammo123]

Lypur! at 17:53, did u forget a quarter note? because umm.. its a 3/4 time sig and uh... you have a 1/4(quarter) note, then that triple thing, then another 1/4 note.

and i believe u said a triplet is the same as an 1/8 note. so shouldnt there be another 1/8 note, or triplet, to satisfy that 3/4 time signature. cuz its an 1/8 note short. am I wrong? ahhhhh!! please correct me if i am.

thanks!

[brain1012]

The Quarter-Triplet-Quarter at 17:53 fits the time signature.

As he mentioned earlier in the lesson, a triplet is only as long as two eighth-notes, or simply one quarter note. In 3/4 time, the triplet just adds another quarter note, and thus there are three quarter notes.

[brain1012]

I'm sorry, my comments are a little confusing to comprehend at some points. My fault...

What confuses you?

[unterlord]

MagmaDrift, you're explanation (.33, .66, etc.) is just an elementary, limited, and incorrect expression of what Andrew's teaching. This would be similiar to converting a fraction into a percentage; most of us shouldn't have a problem with these basic ratios. Furthermore, we aren't measring time, per se, we are measuring beat, which can be presented in equal fractions, unline the .33 = 1/3 crap.

[Tanchelyn]

Come one, MagmaDrift, this isreally an outdated scientific simpliication. 1/3 is not 0,33 but an endless series of 3333333333's. Same for 0,6666666666. Since chaos theory, we know that this kind of oversimplification is not correct.

[hrithiklakdawala]

Where's the picture?

[fingerboy18]

What about tuplets? Some music I listen to have septuplets and 11tuplets. That is like having a measue of 7/8 or 11/8 inside of one beat?

[arrieweb]

Thank You very much for best lesson, Dear Sir.

[magicmike1112]

for triplet's i just say 1-trip-let

and for sixteenth note triplets i say: 1-la-li

[seejay87]

The number of the lesson at the beginning is "11" even if it's the 20th.

But, I'm following your lessons very intrested, very good job.

[arvinth2008]

please show the board closer to the camera .

[MagmaDrift]

this is probably the most blurry explanation that I've personally heard about triplets!

this is a much better explanation, IMHO:

If you have a certain period (for ex. let's say 1 seconds)

and you want to squeze two claps in this 1 second, than you'd have to clap once in 0,0 and once at 0,5.

because you have to devide the 1 second into two (equal) parts

with triplets, you want to squeze 3 claps into 1 second, then you'd have to clap at 0,0, at 0,33 and once at 0,66

hope it helped

[shafieem]

u r the man! and ur fiancee is pretty. happy new year.

[GetDamage]

Yeah, that would be really nice, and if the drawings are a little bit bigger.

[dinobott]

You need to use black coloured marker. Blue relfects light too much. Please bring the board closer to the cam, as most of the videos its too far to see.

[dinobott]

herm

[crazypianopeople]

Thank you ^_^

[NuMaNSound]

can you upload an image of your blackboard because I want to copy the exercise but I don't see the notes very well.

Thanks and very helful lesson.

[LionheartGFX]

i kinda didnt get it at first then i rewatched the video and i get it know i invented a trick for myself :D that actually its pretty effective i kinda do that with every lesson most of the time your explaniations are easy to understand and its pretty cool to be learning like this but from 13 to 20 some lesson have been hard so i watch them like 3 times with brakes so i can know what i didnt understand and what i did so it helps alot

[xjuniortube]

I don't get it !!

[xianning]

another very kickass theory lesson :D!! 5!!! ahhh note equals :D brings back good memories, somehow i remember have trouble with all the different time names when i was younger

[thomandy]

A =) 5*
