Rhythm Diamonds is an innovative system for understanding, visualising, and embodying rhythm, developed by acclaimed Australian percussionist Greg Sheehan.
In this immersive one-day workshop, participants will engage deeply with number patterns, rhythmic groupings, and their graphic representations to expand both conceptual and embodied rhythmic fluency.
The workshop explores inventive phrasing, polymetric layering, and counting strategies, using vocalisation, body percussion, and personal instruments. While grounded in percussion, the system is adaptable to all instruments and disciplines, offering a flexible framework for composers, improvisers, and ensemble performers seeking to refine their rhythmic awareness.
Rhythm Diamonds facilitates a deeper internalisation of pulse and subdivision, while also opening up space for creativity and play within advanced rhythmic contexts. This workshop is ideal for experienced musicians who are looking to push their rhythmic understanding.
Please note: 13+ workshop. Participants must be able to play an instrument proficiently.
