Achtelnote

Achtelnote in Music

In music, an **Achtelnote** is a term used in German to refer to an eighth note. It is a rhythmic value that is equal to half the duration of a quarter note (crotchet). The term "Achtelnote" is derived from the German word "Achtel," which means "eighth." The Achtelnote is represented by a notehead with a stem and a flag that is filled in. It is typically used in musical notation to indicate a relatively short duration of sound. The Achtelnote is an important element in rhythmic patterns and is commonly used in various musical genres and styles.
