Music Tutorial - Lesson 3 - Dot, Tuplet, and Tie

In this lesson we learn about complementary signs for the durations of the notes. The dot increases a note's value by half, so a note with a dot is 1.5 as long as one without a dot. Adding another dot will increases by quarter, and so on. The dots can also apply the same way to rests. The tuplets are divisions of notes, the triplet breaks a note into three, a sextuplet breaks it into 6 etc. A duolet takes the dotted form of a note and then breaks it into two, a quadruplet does the same but into four. We can divide as much as we want, but the more we divide, the less used it becomes. The tuplets can have silences inside them instead of notes, or we can group some notes in the tuplet as one note. The tie is an arc that prolongs a note, so we can write a half note and tie it to a quarter note, we get ONE note that is as long as the sum of the two. A homework is included in this lesson, if you solve it, write the answer, and/or how you solve it. Enjoy =))
