No matter what your instrument, a thorough understanding of rhythmic notation is essential. In order to be prepared to read through any piece of music, the serious musician must be able to recognize, read and play rhythms fluidly. Rhythms Volume Two is a further investigation of rhythms, this time using the sixteenth note as the unit of measure. There are 108 pages of rhythm patterns structured in this way. All examples use one pitch, allowing the student to focus completely on time and rhythm on the instrument of their choice. All exercises can be downloaded from the internet to facilitate correct practice, enhance clarity and aid internalization. This book is a required text at New York Universities and Princeton University Music department.

Despite the name, this book is as useful for the advanced player as for the beginning pupil. It is a combination of the information presented in Rhythms Volumes One, Two and Three, but it is presented in a very simplified manner. The beginning student will be able to read the rhythms slowly, to familiarize themselves with basic rhythmic concepts. On the other hand, the advanced player will find that playing these exercises quickly will greatly facilitate reading skills. A "speed-reading" course for the advanced student, this is one of the teaching "secrets" that Mr. Arnold now presents in book form. All examples use one pitch, allowing the student to focus completely on time and rhythm on the instrument of their choice. All exercises can be downloaded from the internet to facilitate correct practice, enhance clarity and aid internalization. See http: //www.muse-eek.com for details.

This book is unique in that it has all the possible chord voicings on the top four strings of the guitar. These are the voicings that are used in funk, rock, R&B, and jazz. A chord progression section is also included and allows the student to use the common progressions of a blues and minor blues. The information presented in Volume Two builds on the theoretical material presented in Volume One, but also introduces highly advanced reharmonization concepts. Intermediate students will find the progressions challenging, while the reharmonization section will be a most rewarding exercise for the advanced student. This book is the required text at both New York University and Princeton University.
