Teaching Children Rhythm and Dynamics

Rhythm is the strong, repeated pattern of sounds in music defined by duration and stress. The beat is the basic unit of time that listeners tap their feet to. Tempo refers to the speed of the beat measured in beats per minute, and can be fast, moderate, or slow, and vary with terms like accelerando or ritardando. Dynamics refer to variations in loudness and softness between notes and phrases, including loud, soft, accent, crescendo, and decrescendo.

of musical sounds, principally
according to duration and
periodic stress
What is beat?
- the beat is the basic unit of
time, the pulse (regularly

(pulses) every minute.

loudness/softness between notes or phrases.
