We're finally ready to dig into sixteenth note syncopation! Being able to play syncopated 16th-note rhythms accurately is one of the more difficult skills that I would still consider essential for any musician in any style.

Rhythm Basics lesson 4 starts with some simple clapping of off-beat sixteenth notes against a quarter note click, and then we'll move on to a fun but challenging funk example with a lot of different syncopations.
