Music Review
Before we get started on the instrument we need to go over a few
things to know beforehand.
First….what is a beat?
Can you feel the beat?Listen to the following exercises.
Listen for a pulse or beat.Once you feel a beat then clap it.
How many lines to a staff?
Barline
Double Barlineor Final Bar
Measure
The space between 2 barlines; units of time.

Repeat Sign
Note Values
• “Ta” Quarter Note 1 beat
This is how you clap and count
This is how it sounds on an instrument
Eighth Note =½ beat
“Ti-Ti” 2 Eighth Notes = 1 beat
How you clap and count
How it sounds on an instrument
“Ta-a-a-ah” Whole Note = 4 beats
“Ta-ah” Half Note = 2 beats
Clap & count
Instrument sounds
Make sure you don’t confuse the note name with the amount of beats the note receives.
For example a Quarter Note is NOT a quarter of a beat,
but 1 beat instead.
Think as it like slicing up a pie or fractions
1 whole note/pie 2 half notes = 1 pie 2 halves of pie
4 quarter notes = 1 pie1 beat is ¼ of the pie
8 eighth notes = 1 pie1 eighth note is 1/8 of the pie
Note Division Chart
This is another way of looking at how simple rhythms are broken down.
The Dot Counts!!!
If a note has a dot located to the right side of the note head, does it change the note value?
YES!!!
The dot will add half of the note value to the note it follows. For example:
+ . =
2 1 (because half of 2 is 1)
3 beats
= 6 beats
= 1 ½ beats
The Opposite of Sound is….? Silence or in music called RESTS!
Whole Note/Whole Rest4 beats of silence
Half Note/Half Rest2 beats of silence
Quarter Note/Quarter Rest1 beat of silence
Eighth Note/Eighth Rest½ beat of silence
Time Signatures

What type of note gets the beat;Here the quarter note is getting the
beat.
