[T]he book is strong in its thoughtfulness and thor-oughness in presenting a compendium of lessons which are helpful for students at the beginning stage of learning both theory and sound relationships that form the basis of rhythm in traditional western music.” Sheldon Atovsky -The Diapason

“Clearly organized, succinct and to the point... The Rhythm Book is an exem¬plary work that will be useful to teachers of all instruments everywhere.” Scott McBride Smith - American Music Teacher
