► These lines and the spaces in between them are numbered in the following
way.

7. Usually,

► They are always counted from bottom to top.

8. Bar lines
► There are four types of bar lines.
► Single bar lines
► Double bar lines
► End bar line
► Repeat symbol

9. Single Bar lines
► A single bar line divides music into measures (also called bars), breaking up
the musical paragraph into smaller, measurable groups of notes and rests

10. Double bar lines
► A double bar line (or double bar) can consist of two
single bar lines drawn close together, separating two
sections within a piece,.

11. End double bar line
► Bar line followed by a thicker bar line, indicates the end of a piece or
movement.

12. Repeat symbol
► In music, a repeat sign is a sign that indicates a section should be repeated. If
the piece has one repeat sign alone, then that means to repeat from the
beginning, and then continue on (or stop, if the sign appears at the end of the
piece).
