Can a tremolo have a value of over one quarter note per note?

Basically no. You'd need rather unusual meters for that to save a useful amount of space. Remember that tremolo notation is a shorthand and can always be written out explicitly.

What is the note value of a quarter note?

EXAMPLE 20 - In the same time signature the bottom number, 4, means that the QUARTER NOTE is worth one beat. In 4/4 time a whole note gets FOUR beats; a half note gets TWO beats, and a quarter note gets ONE beat.

What note has a value of 1/4 beat?

1 = Whole Note.

We often say it lasts for 4 beats, since the most common note to count beats with is the quarter note (1/4). But this can change, since a whole note can also be counted as 2 half notes (1/2), or 8 eight notes (1/8), etc.

How do you read a tremolo?

There are two ways to indicate that a tremolo effect is desired. If a composer wants a tremolo effect on a single note, three slightly diagonal strokes are added across the stem of the note. If the note does not normally have a stem, as is the case with whole notes, the three strokes float above the note.

How many notes does a quarter note last for?

Quarter notes, or quarter note crotchet, are probably the most common note type in music. They are often used as a baseline for counting other rhythms. A quarter note lasts for one beat. You could also say that a quarter note lasts for 1 quarter of a measure.
