Musical Notes and Values

The bottom note of a time signature determines the value of a beat. For example in 3/4 time (4 at the bottom:quarter note beats), a quarter note takes one beat. In 3/2 time (2 at bottom:half note beats), a quarter note takes half a beat.

If the time is 4/4, the following notes would be:

A quarter note (1/4 or 2/8) of the measure)

A half note (2/4 or 4/8) of the measure

2 eighth notes (2/8) of the measure.

2 2 time, sometimes referred to as 'cut time', has 2 beats per measure, each beat is a half-note. So a measure is equal to one whole note

Therefore, an eighth note is one-eighth (1/8) of a measure.

If you're asking the value per beat... there are 2 quarter notes per beat, and there are 4 eighth notes per beat. Or, an eighth note is one-quarter (1/4) of each 'beat' in the measure.

You might count this as: One E An Uh, Two E An Uh

No. The shape of notes as they are written on sheet music shows you how long the note is played for. The pitch is represented by the position of the note on the stave.

YOU learn about accidentals in level 2 in piano. Accidentals in piano are when there are flats or sharps next to a note that was not given in the key signature.

A crotchet is one-fourth a whole note, and a quaver is one-eighth of a whole note, therefore, two quavers make a crotchet

Music that is composed of notes that seem to have no relationship to a scale is known as atonal music. A short list of famous composers of atonal music would include: Arnold Schoenberg, Alban Berg, Anton Webern, Andre Jolivet.

The answer below is interesting but you may rest assured the expression goes back a lot farther than a late 1970's episode of M*A*S*H. In fact the show writers may have been trying to tell us that the expression was around in the early 50's when the show is set. I don't know for sure about that but definitely an older expression.

: I'm far from certain it's the original source, but the earliest use of the "world's smallest violin" phrase I am aware of is in an episode from the sixth season of the American sitcom "M*A*S*H." : The episode, "Your Hit Parade," first aired on January 4, 1978. In it, Maj. Charles Emerson Winchester III (David Ogden Stiers) complains to Maj. Margaret Houlihan (Loretta Swit) that Winchester has been displaced from his tent, "The Swamp," by cots full of post-operative wounded soldiers. Showing Winchester her thumb and forefinger rubbing together, Houlihan responds: "Charles, do you know what this is? It's the world's smallest violin, and it's playing just for you." : It's hardly definitive, but it seems at least possible to me that that gag (and/or the finger part of it) was created by Ronny Graham, the screenwriter for "Your Hit Parade."

good luck with the crossword...i got them all....thanks to google

Yes, the time signature can have any number of beats per measure. The starting movement of 'Pictures of an Exhibition' by Mussorgsky, 'Promenade', has 11/4 meter. The famous slow movement in 'Pathetic Symphony' by Tchaikovsky is in 5/4 meter.

there are whole notes, half notes, eighth notes, sixteenth notes, and quarter notes. there are also whole rests, half rests, eighth rests, quarter rests etc. to find out how they look like, go on google images. to find more info, go on google, ask, yahoo, or msn.

First you should drink plain water and warm up before any whistling. After that start in vocal fry and slide up in the whistle register because they work in similar ways. ...if it hurts STOP! No pushing. The sound is made by the vocal cords vibrating very fast. This register starts at D#6. The whistle sound may not come out at first it will be very hard to hear but if you have a squeak (the whistle is supposed to just fly out of you. When it does remember what that felt like and squeak some more until your vocal cords are used to the feeling. ***DO NOT LIFT LARYNX IT IS NOT THE WHISTLE REGISTER JUST A VERY HIGH UNHEALTHY NOISE*** Hoped this helped if you have anymore questions just ask.

The dotted-quarter note in a faster song, or the 8th note in a slower one.

Andante- a steady walking pace, to be precise. Adagietto means a little faster than adagio. Larghetto is slow, but not as slow as Largo. note: mezzo piano means moderately soft

The time 6/8 denotes compound duple time. In classical music, a common dance for this rhythm is 'tarantella'. In popular culture, 'Rhythm and Blues' use 6/8 rhythms.

In common time:

Whole notes and rests = 4 beats

Dotted half notes and rests = 3 beats

Half notes and rests = 2 beats

Dotted quarter notes and rests = 1 1/2 beats

Quarter notes and rests = 1 beat

Eighth notes and rests = 1/2 beat

Sixteenth notes and rests = 1/4 beat

Values change as the bottom number of the time signature changes

Adding a dot to a note increases its duration by half its value.

Most commonly they are referred to as either a scale or a chord. However, other terms include cluster, row or series.

A dot beside the note adds one half of the note value to itself.

For instance, in 4/4 time a half note equals 2 beats, but with a dot beside the note it would become equal to 3 beats.

Another example is a whole note in 4/4 time. The whole note would be equal to 4 beats, but with a dot, it would become equal to 6 beats.
