Counting

 

When musicians aren’t playing they are counting beats in groups called bars.

They do this so they know when to play next.

 

1,2,3,4

2,2,3,4

3,2,3,4

4,2,3,4

 

Can you work out the pattern?

What comes next?

 

Development

• Say out loud

• Instead of saying the very last ‘4’, breathe in

• Say it in your head

• Use a backing track and come in at the right time
