Can I use this to teach myself rhythm?
Rhythm Cup Explorations® is designed to be a supplement to our core rhythm curriculum, Rhythm Menagerie™. While Rhythm Menagerie® can indeed help you learn rhythm on your own, this Rhythm Cup Explorations® resource is not designed to do that since the notated rhythms cannot be heard in the tracks. To learn rhythm on your own, please check out Rhythm Menagerie™ and Rhythm Manipulations™.
Will I be able to download these?
No. This subscription gives you web access to the tracks, but they are secured and cannot be downloaded. If you wish to purchase the Rhythm Cup Explorations 2 tracks outright so that you can have the mp3 files in your possession and play them on media players of your choice, then you can purchase the tracks as downloads here.
What if I have already purchased the tracks as a download?
You will still have access to all of those previously purchased tracks and can use them with your favorite media players. However, this subscription is a separate purchase as it gives you an easy way of accessing these tracks from a central location.

I used the streaming tracks for the first time yesterday and it was AWESOME!! So easy and my students LOVED it! We clapped and counted once without the music, then we did with the music and her eyes lit up! She loved the challenge of going faster and faster and was successful – smiling all the while! 🙂

I have been using the new rhythm tracks for Rhythm Cups Explorations Books 1 and 2 for the past few weeks with my students and we have really enjoyed them! It’s very helpful to have the actual rhythm “embedded” in the accompaniment track. The 2 measures of count in are super helpful. Also, I have enjoyed being able to use the tracks online. Great job on these, Wendy!
