The idea is that you can take any note and divide it equally into 2 parts, 3 parts, 4 parts, into infinity. And a polyrhythm is created when you play two different subdivisions at the same time. My first idea was to use shapes and in the video we look at a few examples using this method. My next idea was to use a simple rectangle, then for however many subdivisions there are, divide the rectangle evenly. We listen to some examples of this in the video as well as combining polyrhythms into poly-polyrhythms? Not sure what to call it, but you'll see what I'm talking about at the end of the video.
I hope this gives you another way to think about polyrhythms and maybe some ideas about how you can practice polyrhythms on your own. Thank you for watching. If you would like to support this channel please check out the Patreon link in the description.\n
