The various music genres borrowed and adapted rhythmic and harmonic elements from European music. With the addition of indigenous influences, they evolved and developed their own musical identity. Specific elements of African music account for their dancing and swaying character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe flute features prominently in this music, in the French (‘Mornes’ country flute) as well as the Spanish Caribbean worlds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs we go on, we’ll come across several syncopated rhythmic patterns, each specific to a particular music genre. Rhythmic exercises are presented as short Audio Patterns (actual extracts from the pieces).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI can only recommend singing the melodies, either whole or by sections. Oral transmission and appropriation is the best approach and will no doubt develop and enhance your rhythmic sightreading skills, especially complex rhythms. Do not hesitate to move and dance along: be creative and develop your own playful exercises, anchoring your practice to the provided accompaniment performed on percussions, bass and piano (in the ‘playback only’ version) for rhythmic support.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlay all 4\/4 pieces in cut time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhrasing marks (dot, slur, accent) are essential to a stylistically-informed performance. The Flute 1 and accompaniment tracks present one possible performance of this music.
