My band teacher is complicated literally embarrased me infront of my 50 bandmates for not remembering how to count eighth half and quarter notes the way she counts it
Wouldn't the rest be implied, therefore technically not necessary to write down, given the length of the previous note? Or is it that, if we do remove it, the note after the rest replaces its position?
Correct. It is important to remember that rests ARE notes - they're silent notes - and should be counted and "played" just the same. There has to be something on the staff to signify a break in the sound.
I know almost nothing about music theory, but i instantly grasped: Whole>8th notes and actually now that I think about it, even 16th notes makes sense if I apply the same logic. Using a simple metronome (the clock in my wall) i am now able to compose music almost seamlessly, wtf... ＼(◎o◎)／. Obviously I need to get in that 95% of practice (the acquisition) as i consume these kinds of videos on theory which are just 5% (the learning) in order to improve. +side note+ Acquisition = Repetition. Learning = Adding & Replacing; adding what you either don't know yet or replacing bad habits with newer better ones. That's just how I see it...
SK towards the end when you said a quarter not can be counted from up beat to upbeat, that means that you play every note there except the 2nd 8th note?
The downbeats are the parts of the beat which are counted: "one - two - three - four".. The upbeats are the points directly in between each downbeat. Upbeats are an equal subdivision of each downbeat and are counted by saying the word "and". Downbeats are typically stronger than upbeats.
4:18 , can anyone help me, im lost the 2nd quater note i thought it should count from 1+ to 2+ bcoz 1/4 = 1 beat, but in this case why is it works like eight note from 1+ to 2
Seeing how a quarter note accounts for one beat (or two half beats), the quarter note found on the up beat ("AND") of beat one would sound from that up beat through the down beat of beat two. The next note, in the case of our exercise the second single eighth note of the measure, will be played on the up beat of beat two. This was just to exemplify the idea of how quarter notes can sound from down beat to down beat or up beat to up beat.
The duration of an eighth note is half of a beat. A quarter note (being one full beat) can be looked at as the equivalent of two consecutive eighth notes. Therefore, if the quarter note is played on the up beat, it would sustain through the next downbeat (first eighth note) and until the following up beat (second eighth note). The next note or rest would be played on that up beat.
Only play on the "and" where an actual note is present. However, it is important to count through the measure completely ("one - and - two - and - three - and - four - and") to ensure that proper time is kept throughout.
I also made a video on my channel discussing basic counting strategies you can use when playing complicated rhythms. It's very useful for beginners and can also be used during slow practicing.
I had to search through 20 videos, just to find one that was actually useful. great vid
Antoine Mack same ;-;
Antoine Mack your right

great vid- it would be easier if you played the notes instead of just saying them though
Agreed
alex2930 alex2930 so true
alex2930 alex2930 imo I think being able to here it gives me a better understanding of how it sounds like on a musical instrument
Yes!
@alex2930 alex2930 clapping is kinda playing

This is so helpful
good work
I needed this
Great video Thanks
So the double eighth notes on f for exmaple, means to play F 1/4 two times?
Essentially, yes. You divide the beat into 2 equal notes - down beat and up beat.
great stuff
Thank you this was so helpful!
Happy to help
Thanks man helpful
Im 6. I was made a Windows Startups by using a Music Maker. When you see the F clef called Maestro, you can do music for free
My band teacher just said "it's half a quarter note"
I don't need to watch this
My band teacher is complicated literally embarrased me infront of my 50 bandmates for not remembering how to count eighth half and quarter notes the way she counts it
@@redbloomings7523 bruh I'm not even in band anymore and I remember that
great ! i would like to learn from you . i am beginning guitar. thank you !
Do you play that note when it’s on and?
Very good sharing 👍👍👍👍
Thank you very much
Thanks for the help
Lost you there at the end buddy.
You are god. Thank you. 😀
Very useful

Cool.man great video
Thank you man
i am trying to learn the eight beat but i don’t get how many times you must tape for it like do you have to tape once or twice
So, the eighth rest is silent for 4 notes??? I should look out for this because a lot of music sheets have these little extra stuff on them.
when will you make another video?
very useful video
+nonie fornier Glad you liked it
Beautiful...

Nice video
This isn't useful for me I need a Baritone with Con Brio by Ralph Ford where can I find it?
I can't find a video about it, but how do I read double quavers?
Like, quavers that are joined by a line.
SK towards the end when you said a quarter not can be counted from up beat to upbeat, that means that you play every note there except the 2nd 8th note?
What does upbeat and downbeat mean?
The downbeats are the parts of the beat which are counted: "one - two - three - four"..
The upbeats are the points directly in between each downbeat. Upbeats are an equal subdivision of each downbeat and are counted by saying the word "and".
Downbeats are typically stronger than upbeats.
Five Minute Mozart, thanks. What time signature is two 8th notes followed by 3 quarter notes?
Hey! Assuming that everything is in the same measure then that would be a 4/4 time sign
@@fiveminutemozart Thanks. Very ood I cannot get the metronome to lock in time. No idea why. It was recorded to a click, too.
Appreciate it.

What is that back ground music please tell
Instead of theoretical explanation alone it will be more useful with both theory and practical explanation.
first minute or two good. Needs to take more time before eigth note rests unless you are aiming for adults who forgot.
I have small channel . please send the link to this lesson. Would like to get this info to my subscribers. Seems very accurate.
Thanks sir
Thanks
What tempo do i use? 100?
How is this possible if you have a eighth note on the down beat and a quarter note on the upbeat followed by an eighth note on the next upbeat?
The duration of an eighth note is half of a beat. A quarter note (being one full beat) can be looked at as the equivalent of two consecutive eighth notes. Therefore, if the quarter note is played on the up beat, it would sustain through the next downbeat (first eighth note) and until the following up beat (second eighth note). The next note or rest would be played on that up beat.
so my teacher took 45 minutes explaining this
and u took 5 min only
P.S. my teacher explains isn't that good either
thx for the toturial
Probably speaks very well you just cant understand yet
rich 88527 facts
IsThatACreativeName ? My teacher yelling kept screaming at me to get it so I have to master this cause I have a solo contest on Saturday
Do you play on and
Thank you, I never understood eight notes
Happy to help! Thanks for watching.
How would u count 3 eight notes?
Do you play the (and)?
You should always count the "And" in between each down beat. However, sound your instrument only where there are notes under the counting.
What kind of software is used to make/produce videos like these?
Adobe Animate for the graphics and animation
Hello, I'm a teacher and I found it very clear, what about the software to write those big and short portions of music?
The same software?
So do we play on the ands ?
Only play on the "and" where an actual note is present. However, it is important to count through the measure completely ("one - and - two - and - three - and - four - and") to ensure that proper time is kept throughout.
I also made a video on my channel discussing basic counting strategies you can use when playing complicated rhythms. It's very useful for beginners and can also be used during slow practicing.
