A dotted note is 50% longer than the un-dotted note. A whole note is normally four beats. Hence, a dotted whole note would be six beats.
A whole note tied to a half note tied to a quarter note gets seven beats.
It depends on the time signature. If the time signature is x/4, the the whole note gets 4 beats. It also depends on where the dot is. If the dot is above the whole note, it gets two beats; if it is to the right of the whole note it gets six beats.
A whole note still has four beats, even in 5/4 time. For a whole note to last five beats, it would have to be dotted.
In 3/2, a whole note gets two beats.
A dotted note is 50% longer than the un-dotted note. A whole note is normally four beats. Hence, a dotted whole note would be six beats.
1) its actually, how many BEATS in and 8th and whole note. 2) there are 4 beats in a whole note 3) there is 1/2 a beat in an eighth note
A whole note tied to a half note tied to a quarter note gets seven beats.
It depends on the time signature. If the time signature is x/4, the the whole note gets 4 beats. It also depends on where the dot is. If the dot is above the whole note, it gets two beats; if it is to the right of the whole note it gets six beats.
whole note = 4 beats per measure dotted whole note = 6 beats. = two dotted half notes dotted half notes is 3 beats.
A whole note still has four beats, even in 5/4 time. For a whole note to last five beats, it would have to be dotted.
In 3/2, a whole note gets two beats.
Commonly, There Are Four, Depending On The Length And Dynamics Of The Notes.
Depending on the meter of the phrase, a whole note contains how the number of beats equal to the bottom number in the time signature.
Most of the time it has four, but technically the whole note is as long as the entire (whole) measure. Since 4/4 is the most common time signature the whole note usually equals 4 beats but in say, 6/4, the whole note equals 6 beats.
4 beats
1 dotted half note = 3 beats 1 dotted whole note = 6 beats so 6/3 = 2 2 dotted whole notes equals a dotted half note
