From the moment our hearts start beating, rhythm is integral to us all. From walking to dancing, from clicking our fingers to tapping our toes, we are all programmed to respond to rhythm. In this film Howard looks at the common rhythmic patterns that have been used by musicians from all cultures, from Brahms to rappers, from the founders of Cuban son to Philip Glass, from Stevie Wonder to Fats Waller.
Why do some rhythms make us want to dance, while others make us feel tranquil? How does rhythm 'work' when there is no obvious pulse, as in much classical music? What links African drumming to J S Bach? Why do virtually all popular singers sing ahead of the beat?
And how is it that a tiny Caribbean island has produced a rhythm that dominates popular music the world over?

@JURGMANDR You're an ignorant moron. Appreciate music, regardless of whether you like it or not. You sound like the typical idiot stereotyping rap because you dislike it or have a hint of racism inside you. Like it or not, rap is music. I used to hate rock as a kid, but now I enjoy it. Infact, theres very few genres I dislike. Even if I don't enjoy the music I can still appreciate it for what it is. The retards here are those stereotyping.

@JURGMANDR Oh Snap! I like rap. Retards attempting poetry can be seen in every genre of music that contains lyrics I'm sure you'll agree *cough"insertnon-talentedwrite
r"Cough* I can't believe that after the limerick rap only half the people watching went on to the next part! I can't wait to see what goodall does next.. he's one crazy cat, that rhyme was tighter than a teen's bumhole. Lol M/F. P.S God created monkeys then monkeys created man, get it right you lunatic! = P -
@Jordainio i think you mean retards attempting poetry.

@adamknight that was definately an improvement with the set!!

@nezz752000 do you know what RAP stands for?! Rhythm accompanied poetry...every syllable or word can be like a beat of a drum or a melody...or even beat boxing...a more obvious synthesis of speaking and rhythm...it's all how you look at it. Every word technically has a pitch too, although, one probably don't think of it that way until he or she hears words being sung in a song. i dunno

I actually liked the classical with the drums... Not an improvement, but it did not ruin it.
