The first rhythmic values taught are quarter notes (crotchets) and eighth notes (quavers), which are familiar to children as the rhythms of their own walking and running. [ 7 ] : 10 Rhythms are first experienced by listening, speaking in rhythm syllables, singing, and performing various kinds of rhythmic movement.
Breve / Double whole note: Semibreve / Whole note: Minim / Half note: Crotchet / Quarter note [4] [5] Quaver / Eighth note For notes of this length and shorter, the note has the same number of flags (or hooks) as the rest has branches.

Quarter tone on C. A quarter tone is a pitch halfway between the usual notes of a chromatic scale or an interval about half as wide (orally, or logarithmically) as a semitone, which itself is half a whole tone. Quarter tones divide the octave by 50 cents each, and have 24 different pitches.

The duration (note length or note value) is indicated by the form of the note-head or with the addition of a note-stem plus beams or flags. A stemless hollow oval is a whole note or semibreve, a hollow rectangle or stemless hollow oval with one or two vertical lines on both sides is a double whole note or breve.
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.
