** Various beats in the beat.
Due to the number of unit beats, the level of strength, and the order of the beats, the beats are divided into many types. Such as single beat, double beat, mixed beat, change beat, staggered beat, scattered beat, and one beat, etc. Let's take a look at specific examples to explain the various brands separately.
One, one beat.
A single beat is a beat that has only two or three beats per measure. In layman's terms, the numerator is a "2" or "3" beat, which is a single beat.
The characteristic of a single beat is that there are only strong beats and weak beats, and there are no sub-strong beats, which is relatively simple. In the second beat, the first beat is a strong beat, and the second beat is a ruo beat.
Common single beats include 42 beats, 43 beats, 83 beats, 22 beats, etc.
The law of strength and weakness of the second beat is strong and weak, which is generally used for marches, and the contrast between strength and weakness is very stark. (The most commonly used two beats are: 42 beats, 22 beats, and 82 beats.) ）
The law of strength and weakness of the three beats is strong, weak, and weak, and it is generally used in dance music style pieces, which are more melodic. (Common three-beat beats: four-three beats, eight-three beats, two-three beats).
Second, the re-beat.
A beat that consists of the same single beat is called a "double beat".
The commonly used double beats are four or four beats, eight or six beats, ** beats, eighty-two beats, two or four beats, etc.
The difference between a double beat and a single beat is the addition of a sub-downbeat. A sub-downbeat is a level of strength between a downbeat and a downbeat. For example, when two four-two beats are combined, they become a four-four beat, and this four-four beat is a double beat.
In the four beats, the first beat is a strong beat, the second and fourth beats are a weak beat, and the third beat is a second strong beat.
From the above, it is not difficult to see that the combination of two eight-three beats is eight or six beats. This eight-six beat is also a double beat. In six beats, the first beat is a downbeat, the fourth beat is a second downbeat, and the rest are.
Second, third, fifth, and sixth beats are all weak shots.
It can be seen that the four-six beat is composed of two four-two beats, the ** beat is composed of three eight-three beats, and it can also be composed of four eight-three beats called eighty-two beats, and there are four unit beats with strong tones, one downbeat, and three sub-strong beats in the twelve-beat.
3. Mix the beats.
There are different single beats composed of mixed beats, that is, two beats and three beats are combined, which can be combined in different orders, called "mixed beats". Mixed beats are more complex than single beats and double beats, which are not only composed of different single beats, but also the order of the combination, such as eight or five beats, which can be eight two plus eight three, or eight three plus eighty-two, and seven beats are more complicated, such as: 2+3+2 2+2+3 3+2+2. Let's take a look at the combination of mixed beats in five and seven beats, and the position of the strong and weak beats.
In the five beats, the four or five beats are often used, and the eight or five beats are often used. Seven-time is commonly used in eight-seven and four-seven.
4. Change the tempo.
In the music, there are various beats that alternate, called "changing beats". The time signature of the changing tempo is usually written at the place where the tempo is changed.
If the tempo is regular, it can also be written down at the beginning of the piece.
Fifth, staggered beats.
Several different beats are played at the same time, which is called a "staggered beat". In a staggered beat, the various beats that make up the staggered beat may have the same downbeat position;It may also be different, as in Mozart's opera Don Giovanni.
Staggered beats are generally used more in choruses.
6. Scattered beats.
The timing and strength of the unit beat are not very obvious, and everything is freely handled by the performer according to the content of the music, the composer's intention, and personal experience, which is called "loose beat".
Loose beat is also known as "loose board", also known as "free beat". Usually no time signature.
The time signature is generally composed of the first three strokes of the loose word, that is, "艹".
Seven, one beat.
One beat is a special kind of beat, it only has a strong beat, no weak beat, this kind of beat is generally only in the change of beat. It is more common in Chinese opera.
In China, the board and the eye are generally used to represent the strong beat and the weak beat, the board represents the strong beat, and the eye represents the weak beat. One board and one eye are two beats, one board and three eyes are four beats, and one board and two eyes are scattered beats.
