There are many rhythms used throughout the world, both in the
indigenous musics of the world and the more thought out,

about. When done creatively and with swing, the result can be a
memorable solo that people would want to hear over and over
and that could be analyzed and dissected. Once the concept of
rhythmic play is mastered, then it is a relatively simple matter to
use that as a framework for melodic and harmonic development.
