Music Measure Time
April 13th, 2010
How to determine music time when dancing?
I know there are four beats per measure in 4/4 time and three beats per measure in 3/4 time, but how can I hear when a new measure has started? In other words, how do I know what time the music is when dancing? Thank you.
The best thing to do is to listen to a lot of music until you can hear it. Taking a beginning music class of some sort would help (I think that all dancers should have at least some music training).
