[@itbarthur4u]

Never saw thins way of counting before. Amusing presentation. However; your antenna don't move to the beat and are visually confusing. Overall a helpful lessen. Thank you.

[@TheBest2PeopleAlive]

Good way of explaining it. :)

Hi Mr. Cutchen . I realy like your lessons ,,I was wondering if you have any videos on ''cut time '' 2/2 I really need some help in that as well ! I love learning how to read music and I'm playing more piano now than I ever have !

[@cutchmaster]

+Theodore Korbos Not right now. Thanks for asking. I might include it in the next video.

Ti Te What? What's wrong with 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 4 e + a?

[@cmguitarmusic]

+Charles McAbee It's even more confusing with eighth note sixteenth note combinations.

[@cutchmaster]

+Charles McAbee I know. The 1 Ti Te Ta is a system used in our area of Texas. I think it comes out of the University of Texas. I had never heard of it before we moved here. Not all school systems use it. The Dallas county schools use the familiar 1 + 2 + that most of us grew up with but I teach a lot of students from the Tarrant county schools (like Arlington, TX and Mansfield, etc.) and they use this system. I plan to do some videos that use the more common 1 + 2 +.....

[@sharonfieldstone]

I know these comments are fairly old, but what counting system would you say is more straightforward? I learned the 1 Ti Te Ta system in my state as well, but now that I'm in a university setting with more complicated rhythms I'm not sure if I should start teaching myself a new system or try to reckon with the one I already know.

[@cutchmaster]

kinestasis The 1 e & a system is the most popular but I would learn whatever system your university currently uses.

[@sharonfieldstone]

Dan Cutchen My current choir director has never expressly stated what system is being used since we all can sight sing (to varying degrees of ability), but I do hear him clarify a syllable as being "on the 'and' of the beat" every so often, so that must be the system he's referencing. Thank you for your help!

[@JeyakanthanNitharsan2]

I love your energy sir.

[@ojdoubleyou]

Hi Dan, i have really liked your rhythm videos, very well explained. Do you per chance have a copy of the sheet you use to explain the different rhythms that I could get a hold of. Many thanks, a friend in the UK.

[@cutchmaster]

+Owen Wilson Thanks. I will check and see if I still have them.

[@ojdoubleyou]

+Dan Cutchen Thanks Dan. I actually made a version on Sibelius which I am happy to share. All the best. Owen

[@cutchmaster]

+Owen Wilson. Cool

[@MarianyGuassuHYMNS]

Aqui no Brasil nós contamos assim:1&, 2&, 3&, 4& e os subdivididos assim:1eee, 2eee, 3eee, 4eee Eu achei muito legal esse jeito em inglês ( eu sempre quis saber como era a contagem de tempos em inglês!!). Muito legal mesmo!Muito bom seu trabalho!

[@bashu9]

[@cutchmaster]
