Yeah.

Compound's things like six nine, six nine erm

Nine twelve

Yeah.

That sort of stuff.

At the top.

That's the top number.

Erm.

And compound is three four.

Tha that's comp that's compound.

Now compound is always six.

Oh.

Simple is just ordinary three beats a bar,

Yeah.

four beats in a bar, two beats in a bar.

It's the compou think of compound as being the one that's more difficult to think about.

Six eight times, nine eight times.

Yeah.

Right.

Still leaves three two three or four beats in a bar, but they're compound times.

They're dotted beats.

That's really all that compound means.

It means dotted beats.

Erm what would twelve twelve four?

Think about twelve four cos that's a compound time.

It's got twelve at the top.

Erm it may help to look at it.

Cos you can't think about it straight away.

Think twelve, and it'll be twelve what?

Dotted semi-quavers.

No.

What does four stand for in an ordinary time signature?

Oh crotchets.

Right so

So.

if there are twelve of those.

Twelve crotchets.

One two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve.

Think of them in groups of threes and that gives you four dotted?

Quavers.

No.

Semi-quavers.

You're, you're going small

Yes.

and you've got to go the other way.

Oh yeah.

It's erm

If there are tw if there are twelve crotchets and each of those are in groups of three.

Dotted minims.

So you've got four dotted minims.

So twelve, I mean if you can remember them twelve stands for four beats in a bar anyway

Yeah.

and if you just think what twelve crotchets are going to be divided up into

Mm.

it's going to dotted minims.

Cos you know it's going to be dotted something or other.

And if you were to see er an extract of music for example here's a twelve eight one.

This one actually tells you it's in twelve eight time.

And it's asking you to put in the bar lines.

Where would you put those bar lines do you think?

It would al I think it probably also asks you to to group them properly.

But just for the moment we won't worry about the grouping aspect.

I think, assume everything starts on the first beat of the bar as well.

Okay.

It'll tell you if it doesn't.

Erm

Eight stands for ?

Quavers.

Right

One two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve .

So obviously the first one would be there.

And probably if it's going to be a whole one

One two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve.

So in fact there are just two bars.

Now how would you actually group those notes?

Erm it'd be groups of three again wouldn't it?

In groups of three.

Those two've got to be grouped together.

One two three four

Er it'd be sort of half of that.

Half of the erm crotchet.

I don't know how you do that.

Can we go backwards.

One two three four five

You can only do it if you miss out that.

One two three.

One two three.

And that leaves you with a a little bit

Right.

Yes.

It actually explains it.

Exactly what they want you to do.

Er where you've got a note that obviously goes over a beat as in that one there

Yeah.

you're, you're going to have to write two quavers and tie them.

Is that what you said?

Yeah.

It might have been what you said .

So those two okay.

That one will be joined to a quaver beat, so that you'll have a group of three.
