A beat is a regularly recurring pulse or stress point in the music, over which the melodic rhythm is overlaid. The essence of rhythmic music is a pulse which recurs at regular intervals, usually interspersed with lesser pulses which equally subdivide the time between the greater pulses. A march rhythm might be set up by having a pulse followed .5 seconds later with a lesser pulse, then the greater pulse .5 seconds later and so on. Each of these greater and lesser pulses is called a beat.

Not all music emphasizes the beats; in some, the placement of the beats must be implied from the rhythm of the melody or melodies.
