Rhythmic Laboratory for Adults and Teens

Rhythmic Laboratory is designed for instrumentalists, vocalists, composers, arrangers, songwriters, producers, and DJ’s to deepen their rhythmic knowledge and improve upon existing skills. With a hands-on approach using percussion instruments, instructor Giuseppe Paradiso takes participants on a journey starting from basic pulse all the way to patterns typically used in Latin, folk, jazz and other world music styles. While sharing tools for how to develop and practice these skills, this course will inspire and explore creative applications.
