Rhythm

To practice rhythm, look over the exercise. Start by tapping 1 bar of a steady beat.  This exercise will have 3 beats per bar and the quarter note will get the beat.

While tapping this steady beat, clap, tap or speak the rhythm of the exercise.  

Sight Singing

To begin, look over the exercise.  Then play the recording.  There will be a broken chord playing the La, Do Mi , and top La pitches followed by the starting note.  

Sing along with the recording using the solfege words provided. Each solfege syllable represents a pitch. 

*HINT - This exercise is in the key of B minor.  We know this because there are 2 sharps in the key signature like its relative major D major. It also begins and ends on B (La) which signifies the minor key and it has a raised So (Si).
