I'm 60 years old n I'm trying to learn Piano. I know...60. but it's ok. I gotta say. Sometimes it seems...oh ok easy. But then a lot of times it's really hard. I mean there are so so much information...man. But u cleared up that 4/4.. thing I always heard as 4 on the floor. But ty it is very informative.
Why was the 8th notes joined together in four groups of twos but only sounding like eight notes? Why not just have the eighth note on its own sounding like 8 notes played?
Thank you for your comment! The reason that the 8th notes are written in four groups of two instead of being 8 individual notes is just for notation purposes, and as you may see in music pieces, they are commonly notated like that. Hope this helps!
@@music4kids3141 okay, so if noted individually or together, even if joined by one single bar on the top as in one group or four groups, are they still played the same? It may sound funny or stupid, but if there is a lot of 8 8th notes, isn't that 8x8 notes to be played? I've seen some composers string 8th, 16th and so forth notes together using the appropriate number of bars on top (joining them instead of the flags), so, I guess my question is, whether joined or not, are the notes still played the same? Is it just an easier way of noting down the notes on the sheet music that some prefer using the bars on top? Thanks!
@@NorsePJ If you have 64th notes, it doesn't necessarily mean there needs to be 64 of them. You can have, for example, 8 64th notes, which would be one-eighth of a beat long. Also, the length of one beat can vary depending on the speed of music, so if a piece is very slow, 64th notes won't played be that fast. It's a bit complicated, but hope that clarifies things!
Good question! time signatures (4/4, 3/4, 6/8...) group these notes differently. They take the quarter note as its grouping. There are Strong, medium and weak beats and depending on where the rhythm lies, itll be grouped with this Π symbol. In 6/8, three eighth notes will be grouped together. I would look into meters and groupings to better understand this.

@@NorsePJ Yes, whether the notes are joined by a bar or not, they are played the same way. :)
@@music4kids3141 thanks for that. If you have a note with four flags (64th note), how in the world would that be played? Is that 64 fast notes?

My brother is teaching me music
1:42 why are the notes connected? i mean this " Π " shape
