Read Rhythm Notation Perfectly Every Time (New Approach!)

- Опубликовано: 29 дек 2020
- Rhythm is more important than notes, but let's face it, it's often so scary that it's easier to just guess it and hope for the best! And if you play piano, the problem is even bigger, because you often have multiple rhythms going on between the hands - yikes!
Unfortunately, if your rhythm isn't precise, your music will never sound right, no matter how accurate your notes are. In this video, I show you some easier ways to make sure your rhythm is spot on.

This woman is a SAINT! Long may she live!
It’s simply the best rhythm lesson I learned from RUclips. The Kodaly’s rhythm language is easier to follow than the traditional counting. Thank you.
Lady this was exhausting! Respect
It was exhausting to make! 🤣
I had done my Higher Local exam of the Trinity Colloge of music. Then medical college and post graduation happened and piano neglected. I practised my specialty for over 50 years and now having retited was longing to go back to piano! Now I have found my holy grail. Thank you, you are excellent!
You’re very welcome, best of luck!
She is Great!!! Not to many teachers break-down these Rhythm like her. She is giving so much Great. God bless you for giving lessons that others are not giving.
Fantastic!!! I'm the guy who needs to hear the piece before playing it from sheet music... Thank you!
My singing teacher today said “you have no internal clock” in awe. She’s so right so here I am 😹
You'll get there! 😄
i already do something like this but thought it was wrong, and came here to learn the right way :)
Thank you so much for this. I have come back to piano after a 50 yr gap. (Now on Grade 5!) I said to my teacher that I learned the Ta, ti ti method for rhythm in the 1960’s. She said she had not heard of this, but instinctively it is a method I am drawn to. I had no idea it had a name. You have taken this much further than I originally learned and will def use this tool from now on.
That’s great to hear, welcome back to piano! 😊🎶
Thank you so much for the method! I think you freed me for certain way. I always get lost counting with the 1 e and 2 e and way. Then i count again, lost in different bars!! 😂😂😂 these Tikitiki thing is really easy and fun!!!
Thankbyou so much!!!! A wonderful smart talent teacher!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Glad I found this I was so tired of "and, and, and" making me lose track constantly. I swear every single bar these days begins with a dotted quarter, 8th rest, or something similar that makes you count in "ands" for the rest of each measure. This helps
This does really help with these harder rhythm counts. You explain it well and give options. Thanks.
You are Right, the dot notes, Different Eight notes. and the sixteen notes.
I'm learning piano in Hungary (although I'm not Hungarian) and here I was recently taught the Kodaly method. We have a couple of differences however to what you say: on a 4/4 rythm for the half note we do not use Ta+2 but Ta+a, the dotted half note would be Ta+a+a and the whole note would be Ta+a+a+a. So no numbers needed. For the 16th note we would use Ti+ri+Ti+ri (although you did already mention they are some variations for this one).
Thanks Mark!
I've also understood it that way -- works well.
Thanks for resurrecting me back to piano. Your approach is amazing!
Yay! 🥳🥰

I am going to practice reading music with the rhythmic language; it is so much easier to keep track of where you are in the measures!
Thanks so much, I have struggled with reading/playing rhythms accurately for years. This will help greatly!
Thank you for doing the rhythm language a lot of teacher don't teach
Thank you so much Leah for this lesson. Until watching your video I had not realised the Kodaly method was another way of getting rhythm. I despair when having to count as I lose it by the second or third bar and have to resort to finding a RUclips clip of someone playing to pick up the rhythm again. I have been teaching myself again after a 50 year gap and have become rather paranoid about rhythm. I won't even try a piece if I see a bunch of notes together!
I happened to find your channel and loves it. Thank you so much!!!
Great lesson. Focussed and clear !
Awesome! Thank you so much!!!!
Your system has opened it up for me right away! I love the approach of using rhythm language. Thank you.
Thank you so much, this help me out a lot!
This has been a revelation to me. I am actually a reasonable pianist but i play mostly by ear. I learned to read music and I can read music but my sight reading is not very good and I rely on playing by ear. Using the rhythm language is way better for me!
This is great, going to try this!
A good lesson for beginners, like myself, who have a bit of a hard time with time and rhythm. Believe it or not, I play the piano in a band, by ear mostly.
It’s even a great lesson for “beyond beginners”. I feel I have permission not to “count”! The ol 1-2-3-4 method really does take up too much brain space when slogging through a new piece!
This video helped me big big big time! Ty❤️❤️❤️
This is so helpful, thank you!
Excellent lesson and so easy to understand. Thank you!! Off to practice rhythm language!
Amazing lesson. Understood rhythms easily. Thank you for this lesson
This video has been really helpful, especially the quaver and semi quaver rhythms. Thanks for sharing
Thx for the useful lesson!
You are a great instructor helped me so much.....
Thank you for the insight. I helped or listened to my daughter’ ten years of piano lessons and practice and am now in my sixth year of piano as an adult learner and it is the first time I hear of this approach to figuring out rhythm.
I now have a fairly good intuitive understanding of rhythm as I see it in the score but every so often I get stumped and have to revert to the counting method. This rhythm language is like a revelation. Thank you for sharing and keep up the good work.
Oh that is SO liberating! Never have I felt the dawn break on an idea that pleased me more. My aversion to numbers was such a barrier for me to learn the timing and this is the best thing I’ve learnt this year. Thank you 👏
Great methods for teaching rhythms!❤
You are Amazing! Thank you so much! 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
I never used these counting techniques with 1 and 2 and 3 and...but this blows my mind and makes it so much easier for now. Thank you so much for your knowledge.
this is life changing. thanks
Thank you, this is proving useful in improving my playing but (and this is a huge bonus) is improving my ability to transcribe what I hear in my head.
You have no idea how helpful of an epiphany this was to stumble upon. So simple and intuitive, thank you for sharing your knowledge!
I have been able to get to the bottom of understanding the rudiments of Music and its application.Thanks alot for fulfilling my dream and also being a good teacher and Musician.
Best advice I've ever had on rythms. Excellent teaching. 😊
Thank you, you are such a blessing ❤️ such a valuable lesson in the basics
Thanks so much for posting this! Great help!
My pleasure 😊🎶
Great lesson, the titikaka language is very intuitive!
Wonderful lesson. 😊
You’re absolutely awesome. I learned so much today even if I’ve been practicing sight reading for several months daily. Rhythm is always very challenging as music gets more complex. Thank you for explaining this.
this is some of the best information I've found on this. thank you so much !
Glad it was helpful!
Great lesson! I found counting 1&2&3&...I'd keep going 6& and then it would mess up what I was doing when I realize. The method you used is wonderful. Thank you for your time and energy to put this out.
Thank you so much for posting this. I found this very helpful as I have been struggling to get to grips with rythms.
You’re very welcome, glad to help 😊🎶
Marvellous...really enjoy your approach to rythm.😊
Thank you for your lesson made easy.
I like your thinking and your style. Quickly becoming my favorite piano channel on RUclips.
Thanks so much 🥰
A well explained video. The rhythm language is a new concept to me, but seems to work. I have added it to my practice routine.
This channel deserves so much more attention. Great work 🙏🙏🙏🙏💯✅🔥🥓❤️🙅🏻♂️✊
Thank you so much 😊
Thank you for sharing this amazing content! You are a truly great teacher!
I appreciate that!
I've been a musician almost my entire life (I'm 35) and your "count each note individually" concept is so simple and immediately useful it's blowing my mind a little. Thanks for all of your videos!
Thanks Nate 😊
Thank you for this video. Please uploads more videos like this. Absolutely wonderful lesson!
You’re very welcome and I will ☺️🎶
Thank you very much for that lesson. I am going to practice using what you showed us.
You're welcome!
This is great!
Absolutely brilliant.
Why haven't I found this channel sooner? This is pure gold.
This is such great lesson , Leah . Going over it and repeat leads to rhythm success I hope.
Thanks Padraigin, looking forward to going through it with you 😊
Great lesson Kodaly method fantastic for fast music particularly Irish and all Celtic melodies much appreciated so well explained
You are a blessing
Amazing teacher. Thank you!
You're very welcome!
🤯 I’d never heard of this method before. Definitely easier than the traditional system. Thank you for this.
Thank you! You’re brilliant. Best video I’ve seen in years, so useful and well explained
You’re welcome ☺️

Thanks so much. I have been playing by ear for years because I could never get an intuitive grasp of the rhythm.
I now am going to start all over again , you have given me the confidence I never had as a child. I am now over 50. This is part therapy as I was never smart at school.
So thank you so much. You changed my expectations of myself which I will in turn pass on to others.
Wow you are not just a music teacher , you are therapist and one who opens up the world of what's now possible.
Hi, tried to get workbook but I failed..one question: how do you use this system with ties and syncopation used a lot in jazz? thank you
Hi @@senderoa, sorry to hear your workbook didn't arrive; can you email me at leah@lecheilemusic.com and I'll send it to you by return? To answer your question, you can use the same rhythm language in jazz; where there's syncopation, you're just offsetting the stronger beats but the same note values are being used so the same language works.
Great content and great presentation, been playing piano a long time and rhythm has always been the hardest part for me. I will learn Kodaly counting, that's new for me.
Looking forward to more from this channel
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you from Italy. Your lessons are very precious
Grazie, Floriana, mi fa grande piacere sentire questo 🥰
Fantastic thank you
This is very useful lesson. It has great value😇👏👏
Glad it was helpful!
I loved your video I am a beginner and this was very helpful ... to get use to a music sheet and not get scared looking at it ... Thank you you are an amazing Teacher 💫💕
Thank you! Glad it helped 😊🎶
I use avocado guacamole or watermelon depending on the song for 16th notes. Pineapple for triplets apple eighth notes
seed for quarter
Awesome, awesome lesson, thank you very much!
Subscribed + tiki tiki thumbs-up 👍
Usefull? You've change my life in sight reading teacher!. Thank you a loooot! The written language is the best!
Thank youuuuuuu
You are the best teacher in the world.
Aww thanks! 😊🎶
I really found this helpful Leah. Love the Kodaly rhythm method.
I’ve never learnt that before but it feels easier for me somehow. 💐
Xx🇦🇺
That's great to hear, Vicki! I tend to go back and forth between the "metric" and the Kodaly ways of counting depending on the piece, but for quick reading, Kodaly is great :-)
thank's a million, great tricks to all beginner ( like me)!
Thanks a lot.
Finally a teacher who gets it. So nice to hear someone who respects their students like you. It is amazing that some insist on a method that doesn't work. I had the added challenge of counting in a non-native language. All of the teacher's insistence on counting with multiple numbers was to make me freeze with processing overload. Similar to asking anyone to sing, learn the alphabet, do gymnastics, and watch TV at the same time without missing a beat (no pun intended !) Gets even more challenging with the 1 e and e craziness ...
Thank Ti A, it’s good to have some alternatives that work for you, glad this has helped. Best of luck with it! 😊🎶
Thank you for this lesson. I think it is very helpful for me to understand rhythm and note duration for i was struggling for more than ten years to look for solution to this problem. Although i am a guitar player, this lesson leads me to better understanding and learn more about music. Thanks much and may god bless you to create more reliable video lesson for those like me whose looking for answers in their problem towards music.
You’re very welcome, Edmor, thanks for your support 😊🎶
Merci for this. I started one month ago and tickled the ivory at first. Now I feel like a student.
Thank you! mdm!
Amazing!!!!!!!
Tyvm!
This is great! As a mostly ear player who's starting to develop sight reading this has really helped me
Thanks Michael 😊🎶
Thank you
Thank you. I really resonated with the counting the of notes in the measures with the highest value. The Ti Tiki Ta method didn’t cut it for me. I’ll review this video often too.
Thanks G.M., yes, it’s good to have a variety of approaches as different things will work for different people. I even find myself using different methods depending on the piece 😁
Pretty great 👍
Thanks
what a teacher.
A little “cheat sheet” on all the ta, titi, and tiki tiki values and so on……. would have been nice for us to print up to use as a quick reference. Thank you so much for sharing your gift and making life better for us. 👍🏼
That's actually a great idea, thank you! I will definitely do that - it'll probably go out to my email list first so if you haven't signed up already, you can do that here (and get a practice workbook while you're at it 😄): mailchi.mp/bccb1e32807f/practice-workbook-giveaway
Mind blowing but brilliant. Well explained. thanks.

I love the rhythm language! Thank you!
(although, for some reason I end up singing: "The birds sing words and the flowers bloom..." :) )
Just stumbled across these videos, thank you for sharing your knowledge!! Just a small thing, but when you count through the notes there is some delay between your voice and when you mouse over the beats. Other than that, excellent presentation.
Also I was wondering your methods with dealing with polyrhythms. I'm just starting to see them in some of my pieces and it can be tricky counting them out. Cheers!
Thanks for this, yes I have since figured out a better way of highlighting in videos, might remake this one down the line a bit! I’ll also be making a video on polyrhythms in the (hopefully not too distant) future so stay tuned! 😁
I had years of music lessons and still had a hard time counting complex rhythms until I was taught to count with the smallest notes for everything. I have practiced sight reading a lot in a choir and it has become much easier.
One variation I've found helpful is to count the smallest values in the measures where they occur. In other words, you may have several measures of just quarter and half notes and then a measure or two with eight notes followed by more measures of just quarter and half notes. However, while counting eight notes for every measure can be tiring, it does keep the rhythm steady and uniform throughout.
Finally at last, a real, genuine, music and piano teacher. I like your demeanor, I like your teaching method, and I like the way you explain things. Easier to understand, easier to implement, and easier to enjoy! And that's just the technical side - can't wait to play some of your suggested pieces.
I've seen your sight reading video and would like to see some more on "sight reading".
For example, I'd like to know why my brain keeps forgetting the notes I've already learnt.
Should I do more sight reading exercises, or should I increase the time I spend on sight reading.
Does one have to know the "letter" of the note one is playing, or is it OK to play the note just by knowing
the line or space its on, on the sheet music.
Is half an hour per day dedicated to sight reading only, enough to become a good sight reader.?
These are some of the questions I have. ( I'm a pensioner)
I can play about 20 pieces, (easy to intermediate - eg, 1st movement Moonlight Sonata, Hallelujah- the Brian Crain way) and some other nice sounding pieces, all for my own enjoyment.
But I can't sight read properly!

Hi Richard, these are all great questions, thanks for raising them! First of all, yes, it's frustrating to work on something only to find that it seems to have disappeared from your memory the next day, but rest assured, if you continue to revise and revisit, it will eventually become permanent. I love this Ted Talk video that gives some insight into how the brain processes our practice efforts - ruclips.net/video/f2O6mQkFiiw/видео.html. In it they use the image of a super highway along neural pathways to illustrate the development of skills; to use the same analogy, when you first start to practice, it's like walking across a field - it doesn't leave much trace! But with repeated trips along the same route, the path becomes clearer and more permanent, until it becomes a busy road, dedicated to just that skill.
If you're practicing sight reading for 30 minutes a day, you will without doubt become very proficient at it - just don't quit! Even 5 or 10 minutes a day will bring good results.
And no, you don't need to know the name of the note as you're playing it if you're able to recognize it in the context, although it's a good idea to include regular note identification drills in your sight reading practice so that your playing isn't unnecessarily interrupted by having to figure something out. Really the most important thing is just the music, however you get there!
I'm so glad to hear that you're enjoying your music - don't worry if your sight reading isn't as strong as you'd like - you'll get there! All the best, Leah
PS: thank you so much for the very kind tip :-)
