  3. A time signature is a fraction found at the beginning of a piece of music, after the clef and key signature. Time signatures regulate rhythm by organizing beats in two ways:

  4. The top number shows how many beats occur in each measure. • The bottom number shows the length of the beats: A 4 means each beat is a quarter note long; a 2 indicates a half note, etc.

  5. This time signature means there are four quarter notes (or any combination of notes that equal four quarter notes)in one measure.

  6. The 4/4 time signature is the most commonly used in almost every genre of music.." 4/4 time doesn’t have to be written as numbers. Four four time is used so much it's often called common time, written as a bold C instead of the two numbers.

  7. Therefore, a 4/4 time signature has four beats per measure, with each beat equalling the length of a quarter note. A 3/4 time signature has three quarter-note beats per measure.

  8. How we count the rhythm value

  9. Time signatures organize beats, but the speed of a song depends on its tempo.
