Music in the 5th Decade

Metronome workout

I want to change my time sense. I play on top of the beat. Drums and piano ride front and centre. I want to learn to control my placement, consciously and deliberately. At age 61, why not? If not now, when?

Metronome exercises

Drumming ideas from Lowell Whitty
  1. On the beat
  2. On beats 2 and 4
  3. On beat 4, 2, or 3
  4. One an “and” of any beat
Classical Piano From Jacqueline Ching-Ling Leung
  1. One beat per measure in Chopin Mazurka in A minor
  2. Then slightly ahead of beat one 
  3. Then slightly behind beat one 
    1. Each phrase may have a different approach. The metronome stays steady. The score gives clues which approach to take.
This should keep me busy.
