When you are counting beats, you say 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &
Each time you say a number (1,2,3,4) this is a quarter note (from one number to the next)
Example: 1 & is one quarter note.
Each time you say either a number or &, this is an eighth note.
Example: 1 is one eighth note, &is one eighth note.
three because two eighth notes equal one quarter note
a quarter note is counted [one, two, three, four...] in 4/4, there would be 4 quarter notes per measure.eight notes are counted twice a 'fast' as quarter notes [one (and) two (and) three (and)...] in 4/4, there would be 8 eighth notes per measure.sixteenth notes are twice as 'fast' as as eight notes, and four times as fast as quarter notes. [one e (and) a two e (and) a...] in 4/4, there would be 16 sixteenth notes per measure.so naturally, thirty second notes are twice as 'fast' as sixteenth notes, and eight times as 'fast' as quarter notes. In 4/4 time signature, there would be 32 thirty second notes per measure.
A musical note is a graphic representing a length of time. More specifically, it represents a subdivision of a "measure". For instance, if you are playing in 4/4 time (that's four beats in a measure, quarter note gets the best...so a measure consists of four quarter notes...) a quarter notes takes up one quarter of a measure, so there are four quarter notes in a measure. For another example, there would be eight eighth notes per measure. For a more advanced example, a quarter note, followed by two eighth notes, followed by two sixteenth notes, followed by three eighth notes will equal a measure. (1/4 + 2/8 + 2/16 + 3/8 = 1 measure). The definition of a note is often confused with musical "pitch" which delineates frequency by note name, i.e. A, B, D flat, G sharp, etc.
Eighth notes are twice as fast as quarter notes, just as 1/8 is half of 1/4. So, you can fit two eighth notes in the place of a quarter note. Just try playing quarter notes, then play twice as fast, fitting two notes in the place of 1 quarter note.
three fast, three slow, three fast. all the same note. ... _ _ _ ... or, three eighth notes, three quarters then tee eights again.

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.
Cut time is basically Common time cut in half. Common time is 4/4 time. Which is 4 beats per measure, one beat equal to one quarter note. Cut time is 2/2 time. Two beats a measure, one beat equal to one half note. The only difference between the two is the way that the rythym is counted. Each one dictates one whole note, two half notes, four quarter notes, or eight eighth notes per measure. In common time , four quarters notes would be counted as, 1 2 3 4 In cut time, four quarter notes would be coutned as 1 + 2 + Cut time is used for fast paced songs. If you want four quarter notes to be played very rapidly, insetead of using common time (or 4/4 time) to count each quarter note, it is easier to use cut time (2/2 time) and count every other note.
twice as fast as my mum
About twice as fast as the cold cakes. (:
Twice as fast as half its speed.
The speed of the music is determined by the tempo, which indicates how fast or slow the notes are played. The duration of the notes is determined by the rhythm, which dictates how long or short the notes are held or played.
