One of the defining aspects of music is that it exists in time.
From clapping to dancing, toe-tapping to head-nodding, the
responses of musicians and listeners alike capture the immediacy
and significance of the musical beat. This Companion explores the
richness of musical time through a variety of perspectives,
surveying influential writings on the topic, incorporating the
perspectives of listeners, analysts, composers, and performers, and
considering the subject across a range of genres and cultures. It
includes chapters on music perception, visualizing rhythmic
notation, composers' writings on rhythm, rhythm in jazz, rock, and
hip-hop. Taking a global approach, chapters also explore rhythmic
styles in the music of India, Africa, Bali, Latin America and the
Caribbean, and Indigenous music of North and South America. Readers
will gain an understanding of musicians' approaches to performing
complex rhythms of contemporary music, and revealing insights into
the likely future of rhythm in music.
