Summary
Time signatures are symbols used to indicate how to interpret music notation in a score, and they are used to determine the number and types of notes in each measure of music. Time signatures are divided into bars, and the number of beats in each measure is determined by the time signature. Shifting time signatures are when the time signature changes within a piece of music, often to create a different feel or to emphasize a particular section of the music. This is done by changing the number of beats in a measure or the type of note used to create the beat.

Summary
The time signature (also known as meter signature, metre signature, and measure signature) is a convention in Western musical notation to specify how many of a particular note value are contained in each measure (bar), and in many cases how these note values are grouped into musical stresses (beats). The time signature is a notational device representing the meter, which is an auditory feature of the music.

Summary
Time signatures are symbols used to indicate how to interpret music notation in a score, and they are used to determine the number and types of notes in each measure of music. Time signatures are divided into bars, and the number of beats in each measure is determined by the time signature. Composers often choose certain time signatures over others, and the most common notes used to make the short and long rhythms in the various meters are included in the chart.
