Quarter Notes and Rests in 4/4

Improve your rhythm and sight reading skills. Select a link below to hear and play along with the quarter note and quarter rest patterns in a 4/4 time signature from Unit 2 of Time Lines. Each pattern is four measures long and features different combinations of the Unit 2 exercises. Each webpage includes an audio example of the pattern as well as an image of the Time Lines color blocks to indicate where the notes and rests are.

Remember to clap and count each pattern before playing it. That will help your sense of rhythm and tempo, and it will ensure that you play the notes and rests correctly.
