LESSON +
In this lesson we begin the study of eighth notes (¢°). There are two eighth notes to each quarter note, making
an eighth note twice as fast as a quarter note (¢#'= 4). When a single eighth note is written, it appears like
this #. When successive eighth notes are written, they are tied together and appear like this Whether
written singly or ina group, an eighth note has one flag. In counting successive eighth notes, count 1+2+3r4y.
Maintain a steady tempo and re-check playing position.
