What is a "whole note"?
A whole note is a musical symbol that represents a duration of four beats in common time. It is often depicted as a hollow circle with no stem. In written music, a whole note is held for the full length of its value, making it the longest note duration in most basic time signatures. It provides a steady, sustained sound that lasts for the entire measure if the measure is in 4/4 time, making it an essential element for creating rhythm and structure in music.
