"Get rhythmically comfortable! In this class we work on ostinato rhythms, repeated bass lines, waltz and jazz waltz. First we delve into 4/4 time, practicing ostinato rhythm variations. An ostinato is a repeated rhythm, usually played in bass. Learn how to get into a groove comfortably and in time. Then, we apply the rhythms to two common songs. Next, we move onto 3/4 time, learning a basic waltz. Then, we do a jazz waltz in 6/8 and focus on accented off beats. Finally, we use the 6/8 jazz waltz as a diving board into some improvisation! This class is designed for the harpist who wants get beyond the 4/4 and make rhythm their comfort zone. All levels welcome." (Promo Copy)
