When you are singing, or reading the music score, you have measures, beats, and time signatures that you have to be careful of( and also key signature). When you are performing a piece of music, you have to COUNT the beats, and COUNT the measures to keep up with the rest of the orchestra, band, or the beat. For example, when you are counting in 4/4 time, you count 1-2-3-4, 1-2-3-4. Additionally, rhythms are produced by dividing beats into smaller "chunks." There are half-beats, quarter-beats, and so forth - thus you divide the big beats into smaller lengths of sound. Such as 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + (each + being an "and" or a half-beat. These are called eighth notes) or 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 4 e + a (there are four notes or chunks to each beat. These are called sixteenth notes).

What is math not related to?

singing sleeping going to the bathroom etc Math can only be related to ideas or concepts that can be precisely defined. Sometimes a concept such as as singing can be given a precise definition and so math can be used to study it. For example singing might be defined as musical notes- sound waves of certain frequencies, etc and regular timing , etc. Of course, someone can say that this definition does not fit his idea of singing and even the definer may concede that the definition is only an approximation, but close enough to be useful. I think efforts have been made to quantify sleep and study it and if so, a mathematical theory of sleep seem possible. ( I won't get into going to the bathroom.)
