What is a "quarter note"?
A quarter note is a musical symbol that represents a duration of one beat in common time. It is depicted as a filled-in circle with a stem. In written music, a quarter note lasts for a shorter period compared to half notes and whole notes, making it a common choice for rhythmically precise passages. Its duration helps to create a steady beat and maintain rhythm within a piece of music.
