the key: to change the rhythm of the melody without changing any of the pitches , and without adding or subtracting notes.
It’s more than just syncopation, it is creating entirely new rhythmic patterns.
–can make five 8th notes to play 16ths, syncopated, etc.
–you can create completely new melodies by changing all the rhythm around; make sure you end up where you are supposed to when you are done.
