  2. Tuplet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuplet

    The most common tuplet [9] is the triplet (German Triole, French triolet, Italian terzina or tripletta, Spanish tresillo).Whereas normally two quarter notes (crotchets) are the same duration as a half note (minim), three triplet quarter notes have that same duration, so the duration of a triplet quarter note is 2 ⁄ 3 the duration of a standard quarter note.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_musical_symbols

    Tuplet A tuplet is a group of notes that would not normally fit into the rhythmic space they occupy. The example shown is a quarter-note triplet—three quarter notes are to be played in the space that would normally contain two. (To determine how many "normal" notes are being replaced by the tuplet, it is sometimes necessary to examine the ...

  4. Dotted note - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dotted_note

    [c] The difficulty may be seen by comparing dotted notation to tied notation: a quarter note is equivalent to 2 tied eighth notes (), a dotted quarter = 3 tied eighth notes, double dotted = 7 tied sixteenth notes (), triple dotted = 15 tied thirty-second notes (), and quadruple dotted = 31 tied sixty-fourth notes (). Although shorter notes do ...

  5. Unit circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_circle

    Since C = 2πr, the circumference of a unit circle is 2π. In mathematics, a unit circle is a circle of unit radius—that is, a radius of 1. [1] Frequently, especially in trigonometry, the unit circle is the circle of radius 1 centered at the origin (0, 0) in the Cartesian coordinate system in the Euclidean plane.

  6. Eighth note - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eighth_note

    An eighth note or a quaver is a musical note played for one eighth the duration of a whole note (semibreve). Its length relative to other rhythmic values is as expected—e.g., half the duration of a quarter note (crotchet), one quarter the duration of a half note (minim), and twice the value of a sixteenth note .

  7. Notes inégales - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notes_inégales

    The short–long notes inégales, or "scotch snap" can be found to be nearly begging for use at the ends of certain phrases, typically in a triplet based texture, and for instance especially in a Menuet that features triplets, where often at the cadential points, the triplets fall away and playing the evenly notated 8th notes seem to invite a ...

  8. Grace note - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grace_note

    For example, inserting a grace note between two crotchets (quarter notes) played at the same pitch is the only way to indicate them as opposed to them sounding like a single minim (half note). Various multiple grace note ornaments are formalised into distinct types, such as doublings, throws, and birls. A single grace note is played on the beat ...

  9. Circle group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_group

    Moreover, since the unit circle is a closed subset of the complex plane, the circle group is a closed subgroup of (itself regarded as a topological group). One can say even more. The circle is a 1-dimensional real manifold , and multiplication and inversion are real-analytic maps on the circle.
