This document discusses notes and rests in music notation. It explains that notes represent pitch and duration of sound, while rests represent duration of silence. The value or number of beats of each note and rest depends on its type. Whole notes get 4 beats, half notes get 2 beats, quarter notes get 1 beat, eighth notes get 1/2 beat, and so on. Dotted notes increase the value by half the note's value. For example, a dotted quarter note gets 1 1/2 beats. The document provides examples of different note and rest values and encourages reviewing additional resources to better understand musical notation.

3. In music,
a note denotes musical sound. Note
s can represent the pitch and
duration of a sound
in musical notation. On the other
hand, rest denotes duration of
silence.

4. Each note and rest have its value or what we called number of
beats. The duration of sound or silence depends on each value of
beat. The higher the number, the longer is the duration.
Below is the illustration of the different kinds of note and rest and
their corresponding number of beats.

16. Dotted Note – it is a note followed by a dot.

17. A dot that is placed after the note to
indicate a change in the duration of a note.
The dot adds half of the value of the note to
itself.

18. For example, a dotted quarter
note gets 1 ½ beats because the value
of a quarter note is 1, half of 1 is ½,
so 1 + ½ = 1 ½. The same value is
applied in a dotted quarter rest
1 + ½ = 1 ½ is the value or the number of beats
Dotted Quarter Note

19. 2 + 1 = 3 is the value or the number of beats
Dotted Half Note
A dotted half note gets 3 beats
because the value of a half note is 2,
half of 2 is 1 so 2 + 1 = 3. The same
value is applied in a dotted half rest
