     hour

Rhythm is more than theory—it’s a skill. In this lesson, flutist Chelsea Tanner and soprano Heidi Vass combine clear rhythmic concepts with hands-on practice to help musicians internalize time with confidence. You’ll explore the difference between pulse and tempo, learn how rhythms are organized through bar lines and note values, and practice subdividing with clarity. Through the Kodály system and targeted exercises, you’ll not only understand rhythm, but embody it—building a solid foundation for precise, expressive performance across styles and settings.
