accent Explanation: Χωρίς να είμαι σίγουρη, πιστεύω ότι πρόκειται για το ισχυρό μέρος κάθε μέτρου που στα αγγλικά ονομάζεται "accent". The two-fourth time should have the accent upon the first beat of the measure. In three-fourth time the accent should also be placed upon the first beat in the measure. Example sentence(s):

downbeat Explanation: Έτσι το ξέρω εγώ κι έτσι το έχω συναντήσει στα βιβλία αρμονίας και μελωδίας που έχω διαβάσει. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 40 mins (2011-02-21 09:24:29 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Ιδού εξήγηση από την Wikipedia: "The downbeat is the impulse that occurs at the beginning of a bar in measured music. Its name is derived from the downward stroke of the director or conductor's baton on the first beat of each measure. It frequently carries the strongest accent of the rhythmic cycle." — Πηγή: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beat_(music) |
