Doing
Time with 32 Bars Volume One: Time Development Studies
by Bruce E. Arnold
The book and
CD presents a method for gaining an internal sense of time thereby
eliminating dependence on a metronome. The book presents the basic
concept for developing good time and also includes exercises that
can be practiced with the CD. The CD provides eight 8 minute tracks
at different tempos in which the time is delineated every 2 bars,
and with an extra hit every 32 bars to outline the 32 bar form.
The student
may then use the exercises presented in the book to gain control
of their execution or improvise to gain control of their ideas
using this bare minimum of time delineation. Muse-eek also features
a FAQ section where students can direct questions that may arise
as they work to the author, and which are generally answered within
two days.
This book
is a required text at the New York University and Princeton University
Music departments.
