What are name notes in music?

A musical note is a graphic representing a length of time. More specifically, it represents a subdivision of a "measure". For instance, if you are playing in 4/4 time (that's four beats in a measure, quarter note gets the best...so a measure consists of four quarter notes...) a quarter notes takes up one quarter of a measure, so there are four quarter notes in a measure. For another example, there would be eight eighth notes per measure. For a more advanced example, a quarter note, followed by two eighth notes, followed by two sixteenth notes, followed by three eighth notes will equal a measure. (1/4 + 2/8 + 2/16 + 3/8 = 1 measure). The definition of a note is often confused with musical "pitch" which delineates frequency by note name, i.e. A, B, D flat, G sharp, etc.


What kind of notes are in a measure and how many?
