How Time Signatures Work! - Trinity Drum Kit Grades 1-5 Level

This video was a "video response” recorded a while back for monthly member/supporter of this channel Brian Wilson, who asked for a description of how different time signatures work. As I’ve been asked to upload a video on this subject quite a lot, Brian has very kindly gave permission for this to be put up on the main channel. Cheers Brian!

This explanation covers all of the Time Signatures drummers need to be able to recognize for Grades 1-5 of Trinity College London Drum Kit exam syllabus: The simple time signatures of 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 5/4. and the compound time signatures of 6/8, 9/8, 12/8

Thanks for watching and hope this is useful :)

Mike Barnes Drums Amazon Shop

I now have an Amazon store featuring all the gear, books etc you see here in these videos, and that I use myself on gigs/in the studio and recommend. It doesn’t cost any more to buy from this store than it does from regular Amazon, but you’d be supporting this channel by doing so, which would be very much appreciated!:
