Best Answer

A whole note last for four beats

Half notes last for two

Quarter notes last 1 beat

Eighth notes are half a beat.

The actual length of a note depends on the tempo of the song. You can play songs fast or slow with the same notes and still have the same song, just quicker.

How long do musical notes last for if the 3 was over the 4?

The musical notes are always the same, and indicated by the symbol used. A crotchet always lasts half the length of a semibreve. A quaver always lasts half the length of a crotchet, and so on. How long a crotchet is is usually given in the tempo. For instance, it might say 120 crotchets per minute. The time signature at the start shows how many notes there are in a bar. This is to do with the phrasing of the music, not how long individual notes last. A time signature of 3/4 means that there are 3 crotchets in a bar.
