Hearing your Heartbeat makes


me blush: Rhythm and Timbre
Presented by:
Soriano, Angel Mae B.
Voces, Rochelle M.
Introduction
In this lesso, we are going to learn about the last
two fundamental elements of music which are
Rhythm and Timbre which are equally as
important as the first three we had studied so
far.
Rhythm
The word RHYTHM specifically refers to how pitches in music are organized
(compressed or elongated) over a consistent beat. Rhythm generally refers to
the aspect of time in music. It determines how long or how short a pitch will
sound, the employment of time patterns, the length of silences in between
notes, and also covers the speed of the music.
Beat
The time in music can be measured using beats,
a beat if defined as a regular, repeating pulse
that underlies a musical pattern. However, there
are times where beats are not the same as their
speeds or intensity. Some beats are stronger and
some are weaker beats that is what you called
accent A meter is a repeating pattern of strong
and weak beats. In music, there are two common
types simple meter used: duple and triple meter.
Duple meter Triple meter
type of meter where beats type of meter where
are grouped in twos. The beats are grouped in
best example of this is a threes. An example of a
march, reflecting the song that uses this
movement of our two feet. meter is "Bahay Kubo"
Rubato

Tempo rubato, which literally means 'robbed time' – is


the temporary abandonment of strict tempo. It allows
the performer to be more flexible with their pace, and
they can speed up or slow down to create effect and
emphasise certain musical passages.
Tempo

- Tempo, speed or pacing of a piece of music, playing an essential role in


performance and acting as the heartbeat of expression. The word tempo,
meaning “time” in Italian, is derived from the Latin tempus. Prior to the
17th century, Western classical music rarely made use of tempo
markings, since fixed pulse, mensuration, and note values were used to
determine tempo.
•Larghissimo: extremely slow
(24-BPM)
•Grave: very slow and solemn
Here is a list of the most (25-45 BPM)
common Italian tempo markings •Largo: slow and broad (40-60
BPM)
along with their beat per minute •Adagio: slow, with great
(BPM) equivalents and some expression (60-70 BPM)
•Andante: at a walking pace (70
examples of pieces that use •Allegro: fast, quick, and bright
these markings: (120-156 BPM)
•Vivace: lively and fast (156-168
What are tempo BPM)
markings in music? •Presto: very fast (168-200 BPM)
•Prestissimo: very, very fast
(200+ BPM
Timbre
Timbre in music is defined as the quality of the sound itself
that is produced by the sound waves. The definition of
timbre in music is what gives the sounds that are produced
a type of color. Timbre is a essentially a set of sound waves
that form themselves in a variety of overtones, harmonics,
and frequencies.
An example of timbre is the tone or color
of a voice or an instrument's sound. The
timbre of musical instruments, such as
a piano playing an A4 note in
comparison with a guitar playing the
same note, distinguish the difference
between the two instruments and how
their timbres differ.
