Have you heard of a “hemiola?” 🔄 . It is a rhythmic pattern in music where two different rhythmic divisions are played or sung at the same time, creating a syncopated effect. . Listen to these 3 examples and hear how the pattern goes against the 4/4 groove. Play a Hemiola long enough, and eventually it will “phase” back in to the beat. . As always, notes/MIDI/backingtrack are available on my Patreon. 🎹🤍 (link in bio) . patreon.com/JemHeigis . #hemiola #pianotips #rhythm #exercise #workout #pi
