Rhythm for evolution

Más información sobre el libro

Developed by Reinhard Flatischler in 1970, TaKeTiNa is a method for learning and understanding rhythm. It promotes profound rhythmic body control, the experience of archetypes of rhythm, and enhances rhythmic competence across musical styles. Participants gain a natural rhythmic orientation for improvisation in various rhythms, experience deep relaxation, and foster personality development by applying rhythm patterns to life and group dynamics. The author shares autobiographical experiences with master drummers worldwide, detailing the method's development, structure, and learning process. TaKeTiNa focuses on rhythmic movements of feet, hands (clapping), and voice, incorporating drums and other instruments. The accompanying DVD, TaKeTiNa Explorer, allows users to perceive rhythms visually and acoustically, enabling them to create their own rhythms, from simple to complex patterns. It also features videos on TaKeTiNa work. This approach offers a comprehensive theory and methodology of rhythm for everyone, including amateur and professional musicians, music therapists, social educators, and managers. Flatischler, originally from Austria, conducts workshops and performances globally. His work, recognized with the Comenius Medal 2006, emphasizes the educational value of multimedia products in rhythm and music.
