Ken_Coles Posted March 13, 2005 Share Posted March 13, 2005 I am a new beginner and working through the Mad For Trad CDROM, which I like very much. I am through the 5 initial airs with marginal competency and understanding of the button layout etc. I am starting to work on the reels, and having some questions with the rhythm of a reel. So I am curious...what is it about the rhythm of a reel that makes it a reel? If there are 8 1/8th notes in a measure...which of them are played longer or shorter or louder or softer or with emphasis or less emphasis? Any tips on understanding the rhythm of a reel? Many thanks, Mike <{POST_SNAPBACK}> To experience a reel Mike, you could also go to Mark's session. It is only a few miles from you there (on a non-blizzard night that is; I got snowed out!)
