The Quarter Rest
This symbol is called a quarter rest. Sometimes called a crotchet rest. Do not play any note. It means there is one count of silence. We place small counting numbers under rests.
Practice each hand separately at first and count out loud as you play. Listen to the way one hand plays a note and then the other hand answers while the first hand is resting.
