Music Theory
Music theory analyzes the parameters or elements of music rhythm, harmony (harmonic function), melody, structure, form and texture.
Rhythm
Rhythms in music are base on fractions and all rhythmic terminology is based on a bar containing 4 beats.
The Beat
Music based in time and it has a steady, recurring pulse called the beat. the elements of time in a piece of music revolves around the beat.
Bars
beats are grouped into BARS or MEASURES as they are called. in many songs four beats to make up one bar. the steady pulse would be counted 1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,.... and so on and beat one always marks the beginning of the bar. in other songs 3 beats will make up one bar.
Rhythmically, notes tells two things: when to play it and how long to hold it. How long a notes lasts is called its NOTE VALUE. we also need to notate how long to be silent or not play any thing and for this we use rests. A rest tells when and for how long not to play anything and every note value has a corresponding REST VALUE.
