What does a dotted quaver?

Answer 1

In music notation, a dotted quaver is a rhythmic symbol that represents a note value equal to three-quarters the duration of a whole note. Specifically, a quaver is a musical note that is equivalent to half the duration of a crotchet (quarter note). When a dot is placed next to a quaver, it increases the note's duration by half of its original value, making it worth one and a half beats.

Answer 2

Ah, a dotted quaver! Such a lovely musical term. It simply means to play a note that lasts for three-quarters of its usual duration, followed by half of that duration in silence. Just like adding a little touch of color to a painting, a dotted quaver adds a beautiful rhythm to music. Just remember to play it with a gentle touch and let the music flow naturally.

Answer 3

What kind of note?

Dotted quarter note=1 and a half counts (ends on "and")

Dotted half note=3 counts

Dotted whole note=6 counts

Anything dotted in musical notation is the worth of the note+half of it's worth (example, half note[2]+half of a half note[1]=3 counts)

Answer 4

Also known as a dotted eighth note, it is a note that held for the time of a quaver + semiquaver (sixteenth note).

Answer 5

a quaver rest is worth 1/2 a beat!!!

Answer 6

A quaver takes 1/2 beats. A dot is worth half value of the respective note. Therefore a dotted quaver takes 3/4 beats.

Answer 7

One and a half quavers, or three semi quavers.

Answer 8

3/8, Reason- dotted semiquaver has 1/4 count and demisemiquaver has 1/8 count so dotted semiquaver will be 1/4 + 1/8 = 3/8.

Answer 9

Quaver is British-English for an 8th note. A dot adds one-half of the note's value, so a dotted quaver, or dotted 8th, is the same as one 8th plus one 16th (one quaver plus one semiquaver).

Answer 10

a dotted quaver equals 3/4 of a crochet
