Quick Summary for Day 2
  1. The pulse is the constant underlying beat.
  2. The pulse is steady and consistent.
  3. The pulse is assigned a note value (quarter note, half note, eight note, etc.) so that it becomes a ‘quarter note pulse’ or a ‘half note pulse’, ‘eighth note pulse’ and so on.
  4. The rhythms of melodies and accompaniments are built on top of a pulse.
