Portraits in Rhythm

Welcome to this video presentation of the 50 Etudes from Portraits in Rhythm by Anthony J. Cirone. A personal interpretation for each etude is offered by the author in a master-class setting, along with his comprehensive analysis and performance.

While viewing the etudes, it is recommended to have a copy of Portraits in Rhythm or Portraits in Rhythm Complete Study Guide to follow along as Cirone discusses rhythm, phrasing, dynamics, articulations, musical directives, and tempo indications. In this way, notations for future reference can be indicated in the music.

Students who are preparing for a recital, final exam, or lessons are encouraged to view the etudes more than one time in order to absorb the subtle musical details contained in each analysis. These Master Classes are equivalent to taking a personal snare drum lesson from Anthony Cirone. The information presented imparts the necessary skills for creating a masterful performance.

Percussion instructors will also benefit from repeated viewings, gleaning the subtleties of phrasing, use of dynamics, articulations, and interpretation of musical directives when coaching students.
