Musical Notes and Values

It really depends on what music you want to play. My advice would be to go down to a local guitar shop and try out different guitars. You also want to find a guitar that feels right, not just sounds. Everyone's got a different opinion so just experiment. Gibson 355s and Fender Telecasters are stereotypically rhythm guitars and Fender Starts and Gibson LPs are seen as lead guitar, but I've got a Gretsch Pro Jet Black and, personally, I think that's a great rhythm guitar.Overall, it depends on the sound YOU want, so just find some spare time and try out different makes.

A semibreve is a whole note. In 4 pattern time signature, a dotted whole note gets six beats. In an 8 pattern time signature, it would get 12 beats, but I don't think you would ever see that.

A whole note in 4/4 time.

If the conductor is beating in 2 then it is one beat. If there music is slow and he is being in 6 then it is 3. But it is generally one beat.

the words for the notes of the musical scale are

do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, ti, do. In that order. the lowest note of the scale is the first 'do' and then each note goes up one pitch from there.

the most common notes for the scale in letter form are 'c, d, e, f, g, a, b, c.' Each of the notes corresponds with the word in its spot. It is also with the same pitch as that note.

the words for the scale always stay the same no matter what scale they are put with. But there are many different scales you can play. Each has its own letters for the notes. some scales go higher or lower that the most common scale.

how many beats are there in a treble clef? there are no beats in the treble clef because it shows what notes are on the staff. if you had the bass clef then the notes would be different on the staff.

The top number denotes that there are four beats in a measure. The lower number implies that the beats are made of half notes. A measure in this time signature is consists of four half note beats.

Since there were at least 30 different notes produced in the 1870's, I would need to know more information about your note to be able to give you any idea of its value ... Denomination? Series Date? Condition? The words printed on the note? Description of Pictures or People on the note?

Not close. Musical tempo is sometimes indicated by a metronome setting which

is beats per minute. Often it is only indicated by an Italian word to indicate

speed, such as scherzo, presto, allegro, moderato, lento, largo and so forth.

The bottom figure of the time signature determines the duration of a beat. When the bottom number is 4 (2/4, 3/4 etc.), a quarter note takes a beat. If the bottom number is 2 (2/2, 3/2 etc.), the duration of a beat is a half note.

It is called a Chord.

As a fraction, cut time also can be written as 2/2. The upper figure says that there are two beats in a measure. The two at the bottom indicates that the unit beat is equivalent to a half note.

It depends on what time signature you're in, and therefore which note gets the beat. The most common time signature is 4/4 in which the quarter note gets the beat and there are four beats per measure. In that time signature the breakdown would be:

Whole Note/Whole Rest = 4 beats (a full measure)

Half Note/Half Rest = 2 beats (half a measure)

Quarter Note/Quarter Rest = 1 beat ( 1/4 of a measure)

Eighth Note/Eighth Rest = 1/2 a beat ( 1/8 of a measure)

Sixteenth Note/Sixteenth Rest = 1/4 a beat ( 1/16 of a measure)

And you can continue on subdividing the beat into smaller values. Then there are dotted notes/rests, which look exactly as the sound: one of the above notes/rests with a dot next to it. This dot indicates that you add half of the note's value to it. So a dotted quarter note would be 1 beat + 1/2 a beat (an eighth note) in 4/4.

High pitches are usually written _____.

..its pitch.

There are four crotchets in a semibreve.

There are four semiquavers in a crotchet.

Eight notes in an octave.

Move everything up 12 frets. Don't forget that the 'nut' represents a string to be held down at the 12.

longer straw, lower note
shorter straw, higher note

A whole note? You can drag it out as long as you want. I'm just taking a guess. I was in music class but that was 10 years ago!

This time signature provides four 16th notes (semiquavers) in a measure. That is itself one quarter note from value.

A semibreve is worth four counts, assuming that a crotchet is worth one count.

A diatonic scale is simply a regular major or minor scale.

A semiquaver or a sixteenth note takes 1/4 beats according to the common convention that a quarter note takes one beat.
