Features: The "Rhythm Training Tutorial" is divided into two volumes. The first volume is the basic tutorial, covering various basic rhythmic patterns and simple rests, suitable for teaching at the beginner level and pre-examination training for professional schools. The second volume focuses on complex rhythms, including rests, ties, and various complex rhythmic patterns. Many of these exercises directly use rhythmic fragments from folk music and modern music since the 20th century for training, suitable for cultivating rhythm skills in professional schools. Each volume of the "Rhythm Training Tutorial" can be used for sight-singing, dictation, fill-in-the-blanks, and error correction exercises. It includes both monophonic rhythm training and polyphonic rhythmic texture exercises. During training, emphasis is placed on a gradual learning process and allowing students to experience the joy of learning, rather than mechanical and monotonous rhythm exercises. An important feature of this tutorial is its layout, which uses an odd-page-to-even-page correspondence method. Odd-numbered pages contain exercises for students, while even-numbered pages serve as teaching materials for instructors. The advantage of this layout is that it facilitates interactive teaching and learning while avoiding the inconvenience of page-turning between teachers and students. The book covers various basic rhythmic patterns and simple rests, making it suitable for teaching at the beginner level and pre-examination training for professional schools.
