Sheet music help.
on: January 11, 2015, 09:44:37 PM
I've attached a part of sheet music. Its in 4/4 time signature and i think it is wrong because all the note values don't add up. Correct if i am wrong, but i think that its missing some note or a rest. So is that sheet music correct or wrong?

Thanks.

That dotted quarter is three eights -- not three sixteenths.
