Sheet Music

[xoxoxoBruce]

I got a follow up explaining that stuff real musicians like Limey understand.

Never thought about it but I guess it's in 3/4 time (3 beats to a measure), which is usually in the beginning of each line of music. then they didn't really make the note lengths fill the measures, so much of it didn't make any sense about which ones were right, the notes or the measures, and where.

If this actually helps with that, just look at the last two measures of the first line. And if you don't know what a measure is, it won't matter in a minute. In the second to last measure is hollow notes followed by filled notes. Filled notes play half as long as hollow notes. so the hollow notes get two counts, and the filled notes get one; three beats to the measure. Then in the very next measure, last one on the line, is filled notes followed by filled notes. So that measure only gets two counts, or one set of those notes should be hollow. Then when you hollow the first set, it quickly becomes "how sweet the sound" from amazing grace.

Which is clear as mud but it covers the ground.



So Limey wins an extended vacation on a stormy rock off the coast of Scotland.
