This was actually the most helpful explanation of time signatures I've seen on UKposts. You hit a lot of the questions I had left on other videos, mainly the second number of time signatures and it's VERY significant importance. And after learning them, I have a huge amount of respect gained for people who can sight read, because I've only been using tabs to self-teach and couldn't figure out why I couldn't play some of the notes properly. I don't have a full understanding of time signatures yet, but studying this video will definitely stick the fundamentals in my head. Thank you and I hope you get more subscribers :)

Wow. I used to play a little bit of piano in my younger days and I have been a member of choirs through elementary school, junior high, high school, and college and junior and senior county honors choirs and a professional adult chorus when I was in high school and as an adult I have also taken private voice lessons. I am pretty good with singing pieces, breath control, and tonal memory, and rhythmic memory and can repeat things that I hear etc.. But, my weakness is sight reading and I am trying to brush up on it. Thanx so much for this video. It is very very helpful.

Thank you so much for making this! I've watched countless videos on time signatures and you're the first one that I've seen to explain this in a way that I can understand. One thing I noticed is that you only covered time signatures in which all the bottom numbers were EVEN numbers, is this because it can only be an even number or is it just the most common? Like for example if I get a 2/3 time, would that mean that every dotted half note gets a beat? Or in 4/6 would each dotted quarter note get a beat? What about something like 5/7 ? Does that even exist? Lol I know I'm asking a lot but maybe you can make another video addressing that or just reply here. Either way you already helped a lot so thanks. You get my subscription

You’re welcome! Welcome to our music community. Glad to have you here! And thank you for the feedback. I’m glad that it is easy to understand. I will need to make a video on less common time signatures. I have a video coming up in a few weeks on the bottom number in time signatures as well. I think that should help, but I will explain as much as I can in this comment. In music we do use even numbers for time signature for the bottom number, specifically 2, 4, and 8. 1 or 16 is technically possible but very uncommon. I have never seen these time signatures myself. 1 would mean a whole note gets 1 beat and 16 would mean a 16th note gets one beat. The bottom number basically tells you how to divide the whole note. So if it is a 4 on the bottom, we divide the whole note into 4, so the quarter note gets one beat. That being said, the examples you gave of 2/3 time or 4/6 time are technically possible, but very unlikely. It would be a meter that would be very hard to feel. With the 3 on the bottom, we would divide the whole note into 3, which would mean a triplet half note gets one beat. So 2/3 then would mean that we get 2 triplet half notes per measure. 4/6 time would mean 2/3 of a quarter note gets one beat. As you can imagine, this would be incredibly complicated. This is why composers don’t use these time signatures. If one did use it, it would probably be to make a point. I have not seen a dotted half note get one beat in a time signature. A dotted quarter note also cannot really get 1 beat as far as I know. But, in 12/8 time and 9/8 time and 6/8 time, even though the eighth note gets one beat, we often will feel the dotted quarter note as one beat, and call it compound meter. So 12/8 time feels like a more complicated 4/4 time and will often be conducted as 4 beats per measure (with the dotted quarter note getting one beat) The 7 on the bottom, not sure if it is possible, but again if it is, then quite complicated. It is not a time signature I have seen. Thank you for these questions. Looks like you are curious and ready to learn! Feel free to ask more questions, and I will be happy to answer. I also will make videos on some of the questions that my subscribers ask in the comments.

@@PracticalPianoTips thank you so much for taking the time to reply, that was extremely helpful! I've been kinda learning to read sheet music on my own for a while and I always just kinda ignored time signatures, with this i can properly practice. I already watched your other video on the note values which cleared some questions for me. I don't know if you have one here, but just as a suggestion. You might make a video on the different type of bar lines. Like I get confused sometimes because some music contains bar lines that indicate you should go back to another part of the composition and so on. Anyways thanks again. I'll be looking out for your new content. Good day!

@@OneHandPianoMan I think it really depends on the person. I find it easier to read sheet music. For me I would equate it to reading a story out loud or making one up on the spot. It is the way I was taught as a kid and it came easy to me. I know several people who find it easier to play by ear even though they know how to read music as well. And then others who like me had to learn to play by ear. I think it has something to do with how our brains work and how well the ear is developed from a young age. Plus with playing by ear, there is a lot of creativity that needs to go into playing. It’s not just picking out the melody and chords. It’s so much more than that!

Excellent. Have you done any videos on layering time signatures on top of one another? That's intriguing!

A rare and good video. Thanks for making this so clear. It would be great if you can do a rev of the video with a metronome and combining time signatures with the 1/4 and 1/8th notation. For instance, the famous Hanon practice book starts with a 2/4 signature but with 1/8th notes at a metronome speed of 60. Now does that mean I am banging away at an effective speed of 120 per key or 240 per key?

I need help if you have a chance. In 6/8 time - six beats per measure / the 8th note gets the beat. Ok I got that. A dotted quarter note gets 3 beats. Two beats for the quarter note, one for the dot. So when there is a dotted half note, you said that gets 6 beats. So it’s four beats for the half note and two for the dot? Does the dot basically mean cut the attached note in half for the dot’s value or does it double the note? So if I had a dotted whole note (forgive me if I’m using a crappy example lol) would that then be worth 6 beats or 10 beats? Thank you so much!! Love your videos!!

Thank you for your question. The dot doesn’t mean just add one more. For the dot you would add half of the value of the note itself. So with the whole note, you would not see it in 6/8 time at all because it wouldn’t fit in the measure. But in 4/4 time a whole note is worth 4 beats (because the 4 on the bottom means the quarter note gets one beat) so the dotted whole note would be (4 beats for the whole note plus 2 beats for the dot = 6 beats) Dotted quarter note in 6/8 time 2 beats for the quarter note and 1 beat for the dot = 3 beats Dotted half note in 6/8 time: 4 beats for the half note plus 2 beats for the dot = 6 beats When we change the time signature to 4/4 time the values of the notes would be as follows; Dotted quarter note: 1 beat for the quarter note and 1/2 beat for the dot = 1 1/2 beats

Hey. just subbed to your channel. Live your content 🙂👍🎵. My question to you is that can the bottom number of the measureme be any number or it's in 2, 4, 8, etc. Like could it be 6/11? And also what's the highest number that can go on the bottom?
@PracticalPianoTips
@PracticalPianoTips 3 роки тому
Thank you! And I’m glad that you are here 😊 to answer your question, it cannot be just any number. It’s basically just 2, 4, and 8. You may also see a C for common time, or cut time with the C with a vertical slash. I have a video that is precisely about that. Let me link it down below for you.

Thank you Karen! It’s good to hear that from a musician! Wonderful! Is there any music you are currently playing? Do you teach piano as well or is it more of a hobby? Cooking is one of those things I need to do every day, so new ideas are always welcome. I will check it out.

I was actually having quite a difficult time understanding the whole denominator beat, especially when it came to the 6/8 notes.
@Saotic
@Saotic Рік тому
in a time with anything over 4 on the bottom, what do you do with the whole note? does it carry on to the next measure if it is 6/8?
@PracticalPianoTips
@PracticalPianoTips 10 місяців тому
In many of the time signatures you simply will not see a whole note. Even in 12/8 time, which would have enough beats, because it won’t make sense with the music. 6/8 time and 3/8 time the whole simply doesn’t fit in the measure so it will not be used.
