hi, can you help me write a three measure rhythmic sample in which each measure totals four beats, assuming the quarter note equals 1 beat. Within your rhythm you must include a dotted half note, a tie, and a dotted quarter rest.

anonymous · Answer

take your time c:

anonymous · Answer

A dotted quarter rest is the same as a half rest plus a quarter rest
If I'm not mistaken

anonymous · Answer

Which means you'd come back from the rest either a quarter note early, or late in the measure
so your only other note in the measure would be a quarter note

anonymous · Answer

hm

anonymous · Answer

so what would i need to add?

anonymous · Answer

A tie is the equivalent of the right-most pedal on a piano, which resembles an arch, drawn in over the top of the notes you want to tie together.

anonymous · Answer

And a dotted half note is the same as a half note plus a quarter note

anonymous · Answer

which is also three beats

anonymous · Answer

I was mistaken on the dotted quarter rest

anonymous · Answer

Dotted quarter rest is one and a half beats
