Odd Time Playing and Poly Rhythms

Start your foundation of understanding and playing odd time signatures. Chad Wackerman and Jim Riley introduce how to get started with playing in 7. Learn to play in 5 with Peter Erskine. Once you get comfortable with feeling each rhythm, Terry Bozzio and Efrain Toro share how rhythm is harmonic and the concept of playing 5 & 7 together. This segues into more advanced poly-rhythmic studies with Siemy Di.
