DESCRIPTION: 
Ties
In music theory, a tie is a small, curved line that connects two notes of exactly the same pitch. The time values of tied notes are added together to make a longer note – you only play the note once.
Be careful not to confuse ties and slurs. A tie looks exactly like a slur – but a slur connects two notes of a different pitch and tells the player to play the two notes smoothly. The first example shows two tied Fs, the second example shows an F slurred to a G.

Why Ties?
Ties are used for three reasons.


When a note has to be held across a bar line.



When the length of the note is difficult/impossible to express with a single note value. Here, the A is worth a count of 2 and a quarter beats.



To allow the beat to be clearly seen. In 4/4 for example, the third beat (which is the secondary strong beat) should be easy to spot. Bar 1 is correct – by tying two quavers (8th notes), we can see where the third beat starts. Bar 2 uses the same overall note values, but it is...
