  1. BASIC RUDIMENTS Dots, Ties and Quarter Time

  2. Dotted Notes and Rests The duration of a note or rest can be lengthened by adding a dot: . . . . . . . .

  3. WRITE IT RIGHT! The dot is always placed in the middle of a space on the right side of the notehead. . . . . The dot for a space note goes in the same space as the note. The dot for a line note goes in the space above it.

  4. The dot for a rest always goes in the middle of the third space. . . .

  5. When a dot is added to a note or rest, its duration is increased by half its value. . . . + = + = . + = + = . . + + = = . . + = + =

  6. Ties The duration of a note can also be lengthened with a tie. A tie is a curved line that joins two notes of the same pitch. The tone is held for the combined value of the two notes. . = = =

  8. Quarter Time Music is divided into measures which are separated by barlines. double bar line (end) measure/bar barline barline The time signature is placed after the clef.

  9. When the time signature has “4” as the lower number, it tells us that the music is in quarter time. This means that a quarter note gets 1 beat. 2 quarter note beats in each bar The upper number of the time signature is the number of beats in each bar. 4 quarter note beats in each bar 3 quarter note beats in each bar

  10. Since we know that a quarter note gets one beat in quarter time, we can determine the number of beats for other note and rest values: Sixteenth Half Eighth Quarter Whole ¼ beat 4 beats 2 beats 1 beat ½ beat
