four
It depends on the time signature.
Common time is 4/4, so you to get 4 beats you need 2 half notes.
i think common time or 4/4
In musical notation, a bar is a segment of time that contains a specific number of beats. The length of a bar can vary depending on the time signature of the music, but it typically consists of a set number of beats, such as four beats in common time (4/4) or three beats in a waltz (3/4).
when you have 2 at the bottom of the time signiture this means the piece is in minim beats. the top number tells you how many beats there are in the bar. to therefore in each bar there would be 3 minim beats in every bar.
four beats in a bar
a march has 2 beats in a bar
There are ususally 3 beats a bar in a waltz. :)
In music notation, one bar is a segment of time that contains a specific number of beats. The length of one bar can vary depending on the time signature of the piece of music, but typically it is equivalent to four beats in common time (4/4 time signature).
The top number in the time signature indicates how many beats per bar. In 6/8 time, for example, there are six beats per measure, and an eighth note is one beat.
4 Beats to the Bar in Common Time
Salsa music has 4 beats per bar.
