What’s the difference between a rhythm and a beat?
Beat
Think of the beat as the music’s skeleton.
Beat is tempo, pace, or the time it takes to play a piece. Beat is often demarcated by a metronome, device that produces a steady pulse at the rate of x per minute. So a metronome marking of 60 would have 60 pulses per minute, or one per second, while a marking of 120 would have 120 pulses per minute or two per second. Throughout the entire piece, the metronome would mark out the same pace of the beat, regardless of what the other instruments were doing rhythmically around it.
Rhythm
Rhythm can be confused with beat because sometimes the beat is also the rhythm. For instance, in a piece with a 4/4 time signature, a section of only quarter notes would be both the beat and the rhythm. However, while beat must be constant, rhythm is, by definition, variable. Rhythm is the length and accent given to a series of notes in a piece. The rhythm determines the length of the notes and the pitch whether they go up or down. Beside the length of notes, rhythm is also created when some notes are emphasized over others.
In essence, a music piece’s beat is its unchanging tempo, while the rhythm is a pattern in which a piece’s notes flow.
