 | | In musical notation, a bar or measure is a segment of time defined as a given number of beats of a given duration. |
 | | Thus a beat is to a measure as a measure/hyperbeat is to a hypermeasure. |
 | | Hypermeasures must be larger than a notated bar, perceived as a unit, consist of a pattern of strong and weak beats, and along with adjacent hypermeasures, which must be of the same length, create a sense of hypermeter. |
