  • "Musicologists and performers discuss rhythm, the temporal organization of music. Basic rhythms of western music are demonstrated by a marching band (duple meter), and the waltz (triple meter). The tala, the rhythmic cycles of north Indian music are shown by a basic 16 beat tala performance. Japanese shakuhachi music is based on free rhythm, guided by the breath of the performer, and silence is as important to the music as sound. The pitched drums of African music and the assymetric beat of Afro-Cuban rumba lead to a discussion of the swing beat of jazz music."
