MULTIMETRIC SYSTEM is a music pedagogical method designed based on sets of rhythmic movement patterns of different metrics: binary, ternary, and irregular.

By combining patterns of such characteristics, new rhythmic forms of varied metrics emerge in composite, irregular, and additive measures. In a straightforward manner, we learn to play rhythms in metrics ranging from 1/8 to 8/8 that, when combined, result in new metrics such as 15/8, 14/16, 13/8, 12/16, 11/8, 10/8, etc.

Thanks to another system of body coordination called the Double Binary Motor System (which is also used in the first 4 volumes of the collection), irregular metrics, which have always required significant intellectual effort to approach, can be easily learned and combined with as organic a feeling as musical. In this way, exotic yet highly musical rhythms emerge through simple combinations of the right hand and the left hand. And the best part is that no knowledge of traditional musical notation is required.

Once a movement pattern (MP) is physically incorporated, another creative process begins, involving modification through a series of adjustments, expression parameters, and ornamentations for embellishment. The discourse can also be influenced through syntactic formulas.
