Lessons ยท Unit 6: Rhythm II
Ties
A tie joins two notes of the same pitch: only the first is played and it lasts the sum of both. Ties stretch a note across a bar line or make lengths that have no note value of their own.
In the drill, the second note of a tie is not tapped. It is the most common mistake: seeing a note and tapping it by reflex.
