Re bemolle

In music, flat (Italian bemolle for "soft B") means "lower in pitch". Flat is the opposite of sharp, which is a raising of pitch.

A flat is notated with the ♭ symbol, which is like a small 'b' – literally “soft B” in Italian, which a lot of classical music notation derives from – and means “lower in pitch”.

In music notation, this rest symbol is a rectangle that sits on top of the middle line of the staff. The symbol extends upwards and fills about ½ of the fourth space on the staff.

A caesura is a break in a conversation, a line of verse, or a song. Usually, a caesura means total silence, but not for long. A caesura is a pause, or an interruption. In musical notation, a caesura is a break in the music, which can be a good time for a trumpet player to catch his breath.

In the major Romance and Slavic languages, the syllables Do, Re, Mi, Fa, Sol, La, and Si are used to name notes the same way that the letters C, D, E, F, G, A, and B are used to name notes in English.

(♯) The sharp symbol (♯) resembles the number (hash) sign (#). Both signs have two sets of parallel double-lines. However, a correctly drawn sharp sign has two slanted parallel lines that rise from left to right, to avoid obscuring the staff lines.

The ♭ symbol universally indicates a flat note. It tells a player to sound a pitch half a tone lower than the written note.

key of F The key of F has 1 flat. That means the flat must be the first flat (Bb). All the other letter names are natural notes. Now, starting on the root of the scale F, we can spell the key of F major - F, G, A, Bb, C, D, and E.

A 4-beat rest in music is called a whole rest or semibreve rest, at least in common time or a 4/4 time signature. As the name suggests, a whole rest takes on the length of an entire measure.

Rests play a key part in creating and maintaining the rhythm and melody for a piece of music also. Along with this, musical rests are also practical and help musicians play their instruments, as they allow them to catch their breath.

Pause which rhymes with laws and cause, comes from the Greek word pausis, "stopping, ceasing," which comes from pauein "to stop, to cause to cease." Why don't you pause and think about that for a moment.

In music, it's the pauses that make the rhythms. It's in the pauses that the notes settle in and have time to reverberate in our hearts.
