No Moment Too Small: Rhythms of Silence, Prayer, and Holy Reading (Cistercian Studies)

No Moment Too Small: Rhythms of Silence, Prayer, and Holy Reading (Cistercian Studies) Review

In No Moment Too Small, Vest focuses on three of the foundations of the Benedictine way: silence, the exploration of Scripture and other spiritual writings (lectio divina), and the hours of prayer. These essentials of Benedict’s sixth-century rule of life offer a practical framework for spiritual growth in our own day, a path to God through the events and people of ordinary lives. In her discussion of lectio-on-life, for example, Vest provides insight on the reading of our lives as the “text” in which we find God’s Word written in the ordinary events of daily life. Exercises for individuals or groups follow each chapter on silence, prayer, and holy reading. Excellent for Lenten study groups as well as ongoing prayer or Bible study groups.

Rhythm Reading for Drums - Book 1 (Meredith Music Percussion) Review

Rhythm Reading for Drums provides a highly organized, systematic approach to reading and understanding rhythm for the beginning drummer/percussionist. Basic rhythm patterns including counting system and foot tapping indications are introduced on each page in eight-measure studies followed by a short solo. Each solo serves as a page summary and a motivational tool for students. Music educators and private instructors will find this method to be a comprehensive approach to rhythm reading and musical drumming. An excellent method for class instruction, private lessons or as a supplement to any band method.

Rhythm Reading: Elementary through Advanced Training (Second Edition) Review

Rhythm Reading: Elementary through Advanced Training reduces the rhythms of Western music to a series of short, frequently encountered patterns.

Each pattern is introduced in a step-by-step process that encourages students to read rhythms not as individual notes but as groups of notes. These groups then recur throughout the text in a variety of carefully graded exercises.
