When playing a tal as in a beat/pattern, how can we work out fills and the like, or interruptions or pauses in the rhythm?
A; Have lots of formulas for each tihai you know. A four beat tihai for example with work in a 5 beat tal if you either count off one beat before you play it or else make the gap in between each section half a beat longer. I would suggest tracking down a good teacher and one you can trust. Also, listen like mad to the music and try to find a way to write down some of the things you hear. Even if it is an approximate guide it will help develop ideas.
