Answer to Question 1


  • (A) Beats/pulses are apparent (metered) and (B) grouped into a triple meter, a meter with a number of beats divisible by 3 (1 2 3, 1 2 3, etc).



(C) with each phrase being 4 bars long.

Answer to Question 2


  • (A) Metered music has a beat or pulse. 1

  • (B) Non metered music has an irregular rhythm  without an even pulse or repeating pattern of beats.

  • (C) An ostinato is a musical line that repeats throughout the piece.

  • Phrases are the shortest, complete musical ideas or units in a musical composition, analogous to word phrases in an English sentence.






1 Meter is created in music by a constantly recurring emphasis on the same beat within a repeating group of beats, such as 1 2 1 2 1 2 in a duple meter or 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3 in a triple meter. For example, a duple meter is commonly used in marches; and waltzes are in a triple meter.
