Rhythm: singing in time

Half of singing is which notes you hit. The other half — the half beginners forget exists — is when you hit them. A melody sung perfectly in tune but loosely in time sounds unmistakably amateur, and most listeners cannot even name why it bothers them. This lesson names it, then fixes it.

The pulse under everything

Now the encouraging part, in the spirit of the tone-deafness myth-busting in Module 1: your body already keeps time. You walk in rhythm. You clap along at shows without thinking. You nod along in traffic. We are not installing a new skill — we are connecting an existing one to your voice, exactly the way the pitch lesson connected your working ears to your aim.
