Introduction to Volume II

Volume II of Mastering the Tables of Time introduces the more advanced World Timetable, which employs subdivisions commonly used in music of the world from countries including Africa, India, Greece, and Turkey, and explores the possibilities inherent to it by applying accents, rudiments, polyrhythms, grooves, and soloing applications to musical phrasing within its structure.

The World Timetable employs a rhythm scale that shifts its value groupings gradually, like the gears on a bike, from one to nine notes per beat as follows: quarter-notes, eighth-notes, eighth-note triplets, sixteenth-notes, quintuplets, sextuplets, octuplets, and nontuplets. While the numerical flow can continue, we will focus on these most common rhythmic groupings as applied to contemporary music.

SEE and HEAR the World Timetable at a tempo of quarter-note = 60 bpm with click track accompaniment.
