John McGann's Rhythm Tune Up DVD For ALL Instrumentalists and Vocalists:

John McGann's Rhythm Tune Up DVD For ALL Instrumentalists and Vocalists:
Playing with good time is fundamental to making good music, yet this critical aspect of musicianship is often ignored. This 50 min. DVD program can help all musicians on any instrument improve your feel for rhythm by practicing with a metronome. Even players who have been playing a long time can benefit from the material here.
John is a world-class class performer and composer on guitar, mandolin, and pedal steel. He plays standard guitar and mandolin in the DVD but the concepts are applicable to every instrument. John is a former National Mandolin Champion and a studio musician/recording artist who has performed and recorded with many of the leading lights of contemporary Celtic and Acoustic music. He teaches mandolin and guitar at Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA.
The DVD covers ...
• Metronome Basics
• Playing on beats 1&3 vs 2&4
• 8th notes: straight vs swing 8ths
• Shuffle (12/8 time)
• 3/4 time: waltz & jazz waltz
• Celtic music: jig rhythm
• Funk: 16th note rhythms
• Practicing rhythm to melody transitions
• Playing on, ahead of, or behind the beat
• Subdividing the beat
• Metronome practice tips
Why do some musicians have incredible feel and flow? Yes, to some it's a natural gift but the rest of us need to work at it and this DVD shows the roadmap to that destination. We worked very hard on this program and are very proud of the result!
"...John McGann presents a set of sensible and easy-to-execute exercises
that will sharpen your rhythmic skills, regardless of your stylistic leanings.
... Unlike many pros that appear uncomfortable when thrust in front of a
camera and asked to explain their techniques, McGann comes across as
relaxed and lucid. He has the uncommon ability to distill tricky concepts
into easy-to-digest principles, and his playing on flat-top and Maccaferri style
guitars—as well as a perky F-style mandolin—is dynamic, toneful, and
swinging". - Andy Ellis, Guitar Player Magazine
