In this  \tway, students not only learn to perceive a rhythm as a natural  \telement within themselves, but also to follow a musical conductor<\/li>\n<li>Students move around the classroom following a rhythm performed by the  \tteacher. They work with stable rhythms, with accelerando and  rittardando. In this way, students develop a sense of rhythm at the  \tphysical level.<\/li>\n<li>Students  \tcreate a free rhythm on their own, based on an image of Nature.  In  \tthis exercise, students begin to express their own creativity and  \tself-confidence in musical performance.<\/li>\n<li>A  \tdrum is placed in the centre of the classroom. The teacher and the  \tstudents stand in a circle around the drum, at an equal distance  \tfrom each other and from the instrument (about a metre and a half).  \tThe teacher approaches the drum and performs a rhythm. When the  \tteacher has returned to her\/his position, the student to her\/his  \tright approaches the drum and performs the same rhythm; then the  \tnext student, and so on around the circle. In this exercise,  \tstudents develop their capacity for concentration, as well as their  \tawareness of physical space.<\/li>\n<li>The  \tstudents are located in different parts of the room, each with a  \tdifferent percussion instrument. The teacher performs a rhythm and  \tcalls out the name of one of the students at random. On hearing his  \tor her name, the students performs exactly the same rhythm. This  \texercise helps the students to develop their ability to employ a  \ttotal concentration.<\/li>\n<li>Students stand ready in performance position in front of the percussion  \tinstruments, with their eyes closed. The teacher performs a rhythm  \tand, the students then repeat exactly the same rhythm together in  \tunison. What is remarkable about this exercise is that, because of  \tthe training in respiration given in the workshops ( see GROUP  \tCLASSES \u2013 NOTES ) , the students always begin their repetition  \ttogether as a group, after a precise pause of silence between the  \tteacher and students performances.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EXERCISE EXAMPLES The teacher establishes a rhythm on a percussion instrument for the students to follow; i.e., teacher and students perform the same rhythm simultaneously on different percussion instruments.
