Two figures are placed at the beginning of each piece of music, one above the other, called the Time Signature. The upper figure indicates the number of pulses in each measure, and the lower shows which kind of note Crotchet, Minim, c. stands for a pulse. This lower figure is necessary, because of the several ways of representing a pulse. In Time Signatures the following figures represent the several notes :C rotchet 4. Minim =2. Quaver =8. Longer and shorter notes are not commonly used to represent a pulse. Examples: Two Three Three Crotchets. Crotchets. Quavers. Three Two Minims. Minims. Four Six Six Four Minims. Quavers. Crotchets. Crotchets. The two letters Cwhich stand at the end of the line mean Common Time i.e., four-pulse measure. The second, with a line through it, denotes a quicker rate of movement in the same measure.
