 Re: Sight reading timing - hints on how to do it

Like many others, I can subdivide & analyze most rhythms pretty quickly and then retain and play them. There are exceptions, like the following.

- Swing rhythms are among those that are not played exactly as written, and exactly how they should be played depends on other things. You have to catch the rhythm and the style in your ear.

- That thing Spohr did in the first movement of his second concerto, just before the stately second theme, where a bar of dotted 8ths & 16ths is followed by a bar of half-note triplets divided into dotted 8ths and 16ths, which is then followed by a bar of dotted 16ths and 32nds - a speeding up that's expressly contradicted by a "rit." underneath. After analyzing, practicing AND interpretive head scratching, I still have little confidence I can produce whatever effect it was that the composer took such pains to indicate.

- Offbeat triplets. Analyzing this rhythm became frustrating, but fortunately there's a good video on it:
