Time and Time Signature

A performer counting "1 and-a 2 and-a," when practising compound time, specifically is marking the subdivision of each main beat into

• A.four parts, a subdivision not typically used when counting a single compound-time beat aloud
• B.two parts, a subdivision instead associated with practising simple time
• C.a factor entirely unrelated to marking the subdivision of each main beat into three parts
• D.three parts

Barring an unbarred musical passage specifically requires correctly grouping its notes according to the

• A.exact pitch of each individual note, regardless of the given time signature
• B.key signature alone, with no reference to the time signature at all
• C.a factor entirely unrelated to grouping notes according to the given time signature
• D.given time signature

Correctly rewriting (barring) an unbarred melody specifically requires counting note values carefully against the

• A.exact tempo marking, rather than against any time signature at all
• B.given key signature, rather than against any time signature at all
• C.given time signature, before inserting barlines
• D.a factor entirely unrelated to counting note values against the given time signature
