An eighth note is a musical symbol that indicates a duration that is one-eighth of the length of a whole note. It is depicted as a filled-in circle with a stem and a single flag. In written music, an eighth note lasts for half the length of a quarter note, making it a shorter note value. Eighth notes are often used to create quicker rhythms and more detailed patterns within a measure, and they help add variety and movement to musical compositions.
