Understanding Notes and Rests in Music

Notes represent pitches and durations, while rests designate pauses in the music. Notes come in whole, half, quarter, and eighth values lasting 4, 2, 1, or 1/2 beats. Rests also come in whole, half, quarter, and eighth values to show silent pauses of the same durations as notes.
