Time signatures, finding the strong beats in every types of bar (#17)

Back with another episode about music theory. This is the second one about rhythm, and today we'll talk about time signatures. These are the numbers we sometime see at the beginning of a bar, and it tells basically how many beats fit in one bar. We'll see exactly what these numbers tell us and how to find where are the weak and strong beats for each time signature. From there, you would have all the blueprints to create your own rhythms, but don't hesitate to move these accents (strong beats) around to find other rhythms that fit in these same bars.
