Breaking rhythm down into an arrangement of 1 beat figures helps hone rhythm and develop solid sight reading skills. The concept can also be easily expanded to simplify syncopation and all the tuplets (3, 5, 6, 7, etc.).
If you want to perfect rhythm accuracy, sight read rhythm fluently, learn new guitar strum patterns easily and feel complex rhythms quickly, memorizing these building blocks of rhythm is one of the most important things you can do. - Hudba
Time stamps for my practice🙂:
Quarter note: 1:26
Eighth note: 2:13
Sixteenth note: 2:49
Eighth & two sixteenths: 3:54
Two sixteenths & eighth: 4:07
Sixteenth-eighth-sixteenth: 4:21
Eighth dotted sixteenth: 4:45
Sixteenth dotted eighth: 5:00
Triplets: 5:22
All: 6:07
5:44, and 6:51, pause fast for 20 different excerises each.
Thanks that is really useful!

Sixteenth eight dotted: 5:00 would be better than
Sixteenth dotted eighth: 5:00 in my opinion. Thanks for helping us.
Your tutorial shoud be a MUST WATCH especially for musicians like myself who grew up and learned witnout formal sight reading training. I am in 100% agreement with your approach for getting non readers to finally tear down the mental block that makes sight reading SO difficult for the ear self taught and non formally taught musicians! Reading the rhythm correctly will knock down 75% of the learning block because playing in rhythm makes the sight reading process 100000 times more natural feeling. The rest is patient practice... Kudos
You forgot.. A hell lot of practice, but it pays of
Is a rhythm generator like that available for sale?
@@MrSacman88 try a metronome
Having only ever really played music by ear, reading rhythm was a total mystery to me. Your video has simplified it and set me confidently off on the right track. Many thanks for your help.
You can pause the generator in different parts just to get more exercises
somebody's thinking!!
Brilliant thanks
When I pause the video it just pauses; so exactly what do you mean by "getting more exercises" ?!?
@@danbromberg you're kinda dumb.
where can i find this generator?
Best explanation of this I have found! Awesome breakdown and made it clear and simple.
Cheers!
@@SaherGalt 2 years and it still lives to its praises.
Thank you for your great work teaching!
after watching loads of 1-2-3-4 video (and being dyslexic) i though counting rhythm was something i couldn't do, this video has really helped tyvm!
fuck yu i cant do it
I'm dyslexic I can relate with you.
Me too
Same
Absolutely epic. Man I needed this video. I just became a better lead guitarist in the last 9 minutes than I have in the last 9 years. And his voice could deliver the news to terminal patients in a way that left them feeling calm, relaxed and happy. Lol. Thank you so much for this!
And me too. Now if only i could have a voice like Saher's...
Sir, you are like the coolest musician I know on CZcams. I greatly appreciate these videos and how you make the fundamentals of music so readily accessible to people. Rock on, man!
I think He is the coolest musician ever.. ^_^
What R said :)
*cough* two set violin *cough*
are u Gay?
I just leveled up my rhythm. This is an incredibly well put together video. And it's exceptionally focused. Love your work! Thank you!
This exactly what I was looking for. I wish there were more rhythm machine practice videos! That was so helpful
I've looked at a lot of videos on this subject, none Sir, are as simple to understand as yours. I actually feel like I've learned something. Masterfully done. Thank you!
Superb video! Ive been playing for 30 years and even bluffed my way through music college. this was the clearest most easy to digest video on this topic ever. Thank you!
Your videos are so theoretically sound, well narrated and animated that you have surely created a CZcams music university. Bravo!
This isn't just a great music tutorial, but one of the best interactive format youtube vids imo. Great job!!
Great explanation! Will watch it repeatedly til I get it. Thank you!
super helpful. thank you
you suk.
you are so bad.
Ha!
Im the 69 th like!
Saber,
For years I have been trying to count musical scores correctly and after watching your video
everything suddenly made sense! You are a phenomenal teacher! Thank you for solving my problem.

By far, the best video I've seen about Rhythm. God bless you man, I am clear as crystal right now
Two pearls here:
a) feel the rhythm in your body.
b) Just use "da"....forget the syllables, numbers that are so distracting
Fantastic!!
After trying for almost a month finally 😅 I can do it ☺️keep trying you can also do 💪🏽
Trainers always skip important areas but you cleared those. Well done. Thank you
This was soooo helpful! My brain spazzes our in the 8th and 16th note combos, so will def be practicing those until I have master it!
this is the first of your vids i've ever seen - thanks for demystifying basic rhythm patterns so beautifully. it's usually such dry subject matter, but by demonstrating, as well as getting viewers involved in creating the rhythms themselves, you've given me a better chance of remembering it all!! truthfully, i'll have to watch it a few more times, just to be sure, but it was such an entertaining vid that i don't mind at all 😁
I'm a first time viewer of this channel but I subscribed within about 40 seconds of this video. Wow! Love the high quality production and approach!
Your videos are absolutely fantastic. More effective than any professor I've had. Wish I had these videos in highschool.
I have been learning piano, since 21, I’m 38 now, how I have struggled with timing and beats, has confused me, and something I felt I’d never fully understand. what you put together and your teaching, was the final lightbulb in my head where’ve I’ve finally bin able to say ah Ha! Thanks man! Thank you, now I can take on sheet music, and not feel intimidated no more 👊
I’ve played instruments in school for years, violin since 5th grade then more recently in high school, viola. I was never actually taught how to count 16ths, just told “it’s 1 e + a”, which helped but I didn’t exactly understand. This helped me so much in visualizing how 16ths work. I will still have to work on it, but this will help mu sight reading so much. I’ll be showing this to all the newer players in my orchestra!
OMG this was amazing. My brain has been struggling so long with wrapping itself around this. This is perfect! Thank you!
Cramming for my PhD in composition exam and this vid was quite helpful. Thank you!
I trained using solfeggio, combining pitch with rhythm. Having the ability to conceptualize what you see makes a big difference in how quickly you can learn something.
A quick glacé through these, and comments in almost any page associated with music tuition, reveal that people pursue their hopes and dreams, often throughout entire lifetimes.
These videos are well presented and the teaching is clear and understandable. They are really helping me unlock rhythms. Thanks for sharing!
i can admit it was the best video of music lessons that i have ever seen.congratulations
Awesome brother...
You've really clear & unique voice that the youtube's auto-captions captured perfect english words without any mistake... I really appreciate how you took time to resolve the biggest issue of timing that most students face while studying instruments.. Thank you.. As a music teacher, i really feel honored to subscribe your channel and explain the same theory to my students in easy way just like you did.
Thank you.
Ok, 9 minutes just saved me weeks of lessons. Bravo!
Wtf is this video, i don't need it at all because i know how to sight read, but i saw it anyway because it's so well done. I think i never saw someone explaining rhythmic sight reading in such an understandable way like you did in this video. You deserve a lot of attention from begginer and even intermediate musicians
YOU DESERVE MORE VIEWS AND SUBSCRIBERS this was amazing content and quality
This is Paramount to many instructional videos I came across in life, I honor you, subscribing @Saher Galt
this is very helpful. Probably the best video i've come across for understanding rhythms and sight reading. Thank you.
Saher Galt- You Are an awesome teacher! You have a calming voice and you are detailed n explain everything easily!😊❤️
this is so helpful, i'm going to make flash cards of these and memorize them and play that game for practice with rest notes in the mix. Thank you so much.
What a great idea. I want to do this too.
You break it down so well! I will use this with my music students. Thank you!
Wow excellent exercices. The best I found so far. Great channel keep them coming !
We hope you keep making more videos of this way . Most easy and perfect video I ever seen In CZcams 👍
i understood right now!!for long time I couldn't understand this things..lord bless you bro
Tarekegn Yohannes of. The
The same for me. I'd really thankful about this.. He is very gifted man.
MzPlayer315 these*
Tarekegn Yohannes I guess I’m hopeless; I was lost 30 seconds in
This is just what I have been looking for to help me with my piano lessons!
And, this should be required for Kindergartners to help them with learning music and hearing it in its totality not just for the melody.
Thank you Saher!!!!
Happy Chanukah, Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas everyone!💕🎶🎄🎁🙏🎅🎶💕
this is like the most helpful tutorial ever, interactive, animated, fun to watch and easy to follow!
Fantastic rhythmic training aid! Best I’ve found so far. Thanks my man
Thank you. Nice video. I have been using rhythm syllables in my music classes for years, however, students still struggle to sight read them. I think I will experiment with this method.
Saher Galt? More like Saher fucking GOLD, thank you so much 😊
So true lol
For 20 years I've played an never really understood!
Why don't all teachers make it this simple. As soon as I clapped only on the beat but vocalised all the rhythm I got it! Also using the same ta sound really makes much it better than lots of different syllables!
Thank you.Brilliant teacher!
thank you for those exercises Mr. Galt
Excellently done and the timbre of your voice just add to a great lesson. Its like listening to my fovourite songs

Super helpful tutorial and just what I needed to help with my eight notes!
Really glad to have found your channel. Keep doing what you're doing. Touching a lot of folks!
This was actually so helpful whattt????
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH THIS IS REALLY HELPFUL
D: i always mess up on the dotted notes.
Have you figured gotten better now/any advice you got for me cause I always mess them up
Sing 1 e & a the note length of the dotted note is from 1 to &
1e&a2e&a3e&a4e&a don’t say the letters instead say uh
@@sylvanatiku2901 would a dotted eighth note be & a?
@@kayleighfankhauser7042 the note length of dotted eight note in the scale of 1 e & a 2 is from 1 to a = 1 e & a which is still = &(eight note)+ length and a(quarter note lenth = 80% of whole note(from 1to 2.
So & a ( total note length) is right too..
THIS WAS SO WONDERFUL. YOU ROCK.
This is absolutely the best tempo and rhythm exercise ever!!!!!! Unbelievable think I watched every other you tube video and this is the best!!!! Thanks!!
Thank you very much !
this is awesome thank you
What a great break down! Thank you for taking the time to do this!
This has got to be one of the best videos I have ever seen, ever , for understanding this concept, so well presented and very easily understandable, thank you soo much sir for this video, I have searched for so many videos to understand this, but now I feel very confident to tackle this....keep doing more sir...
Perfect... thanks..made the rhythms super clear:)
This a very helpful lesson! I can "visualize" the rhythms...Thank you.
best explanation of music notes and timing I have ever seen. for those that are not musically inclined or without any music knowledge this is totally doable.
Just came across your videos. They are so well put together. Rhythm has just been made so much clearer. Will need to reattach a few times. Thanks so much for such a well thought out video.
For sure I am gonna book some courses from you in September I like your way of explaining! You explain so well! I'd love to learn how to sing not to be a singer but I love singing 😊
I’d say I learned a hell of a lot.
Sir, I have been using tonic solfa, but now I am being a beginner in staff notes through your chanel and I have been benefing in learning.
I'm an Indian, my name is Silson chisim sangma and I am from the state of Meghalaya and district is South Garo Hills, my community is Garo. My village is Rongrikimgre p.o Silkigre. Thank you sir, and God bless you.
Outstanding! Very well explained and professionally done video. I struggled with rhythm while trying to learn to sight read 40 years ago. Reading rhythm is probably the single most factor as to why I stopped learning to read on the guitar after books 1&2 of the 7 book method. Back then there were no videos and few unknown recordings covering this subject. I lived in a small rural town with no teachers that could read guitar music. Thank you SO very much.
Quarter note: 1:26
Eighth note: 2:13
Sixteenth note: 2:49
Eighth & two sixteenths: 3:54
Two sixteenths & eighth: 4:07
Sixteenth-eighth-sixteenth: 4:21
Eighth dotted sixteenth: 4:45
Sixteenth dotted eighth: 5:00
Triplets: 5:22
All: 6:07
The half note and the whole note would like to "play" this game, too!
This is literally amazing.
Just love your lessons. I study classical music and your warm ups/lessons work well for me too. Many thanks
Hey Saher, I really like your interactive rhythm lessons. That's what I was looking for!
Is there a possibilty to do more of this kind of training, like a program or a book with a CD?
i have a music test tmrw u explained this so well. even better than my teacher. subbed and liked
Jeyakanthan Thangarasa how did you go?
@@stewmcleod7315 I got perfect it was easier than I thought about I did not need this. But it was still helpful
This is a great video/breakdown! We agree that the key to sight reading is through rhythm practice. Keep up the great work!
Super cool! Thank you for the exercise!
THANK YOU so much after I got yelled at last week for cant do this stuff
This is so helpfull .. you did it differently but its very easy to catch up . i love your method . 5 star .
This whole channel is amazing. I'm going to school to be a music therapist and these videos are helping me with my music theory classes sooooooo much!!! Amazing teacher.
wow. i've been looking for something like this for long time . i can't beleive . thank you very much 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
6:05 - 6:43 if you want to dig the beat on your head
Really great tutorial. Is this rhythm generator an app that we can install on our computers to practice these drills?
This is the best rhythm instructional video I've seen. Thanks so much!
Best explanation I've seen on this tricky subject.I've subscribed for future videos.
Great video. Although I do like vocally making a sound, sometimes I feel like counting helps me keep track of what part of the beat I'm actually on, to help emphasis certain notes on strong beats. What is a good way to count some of these trickier combinations like 16th note + dotted 8th or 8th + two 16ths?
3:53 Eighth two sixteenth
4:06 two sixteeth & eighth
4:18 sixteeth eighth sixteeth
4:45 dotted eighth sixteeth
5:00 sixteeth dotted eighth
5:20 triplets
It all makes sense now! Thank you so much
Oh my god, you saved me! I've been playing the violin for almost five years now and counting has been my ultimate weakness. I'm too shy to ask anyone how to do it, but this video explained a lot for me! Thanks!
better than my music teacher!
My music teacher in 5th grade was a prick. This guy is great!
Not bad, he breaks things down pretty simple. Hope he comes down with more building blocks making it more simple and clear.
all i have to say is
DA DA DA DA DA DADADA DA DA DA
Best video on rhythm. The visual guide was so helpful
Spent about 20 minutes looking for this one video. Worth it.
Sir, these are all on one-beat-subdivisions. I always have problems on 6/8 and 12/8 (half beat?). Can you teach how to count? Thanks so much.
Silly Fool 6/8: |123456| eg: play snare on the 4th count..or an accent on 4. tatataTAtata
In 12/8: |123456 123456| play snare or accent on every 5..tatatataTAta. TA means accent
jerin eben
Is 4th beat emphasised in all genres when you're in 6/8?
In most cases, yes. 6/8 is what's called a compound meter, which means that each beat is subdivided into 3 parts, each beat being represented by a dotted 8th note. In this case, the subdivision would be 3 8th notes, because of the 8 in the time signature. 6/8 has 2 beats, making it a duple meter. That means you would accent the beats as TA ta ta TA ta ta. I have seen cases where you would play it like TA TA TA TA TA TA though. You just have to interpret what better fits at that moment.
12/8 is a compound quadruple meter, meaning it has 4 beats, subdivided into 3 8th notes. You would play this as TA ta ta TA ta ta TA ta ta TA ta ta.
9/8 can be weird. In most music, you would subdivide it like above. It's compound triple, so it's TA ta ta TA ta ta TA ta ta. But 9/8 8 can also be emphasized like it's mixed meter. The 2 most common being TA ta TA ta TA ta TA ta ta and TA ta ta TA ta TA ta TA ta.
If you have any more questions, I would try googling Simple Meter (things like 2/4 3/4 4/4 2/2), Compound Meter (What I went over briefly in this comment), and Mixed Meter. There are many music theory sites that can explain it better than I could.
bertaga41 not always..you can play different way..u can emphasize at diff beats..however the general formula is emphasising 4th beat..
can you do more videos like this one,please?
Just posted a new rhythm video today: czcams.com/video/RuvA4b_2pk0/video.html
thanks.
Nice Teaching you sir... 🙏🙏 I also learned in the same way in the year 2007. I m from INDIA.. My teacher's name is Rajnikant Patil. They used to teach according to this method. I remembered my teacher a lot from your teaching.Thank you so much sir..
Very respectable teaching!
