Thank you Eva for you answer; it would be fine, but it does not work. I put
the following in a file named exp.tex:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\input musixtex

\tinynotesize\noindent
Eine Achtelnote \zcu1 \kern 6pt besitzt genau den halben Notenwert
einer Viertelnote \zqu1 \kern 4pt. Zwei Achtelnoten zusammen haben den
gleichen Notenwert wie eine Viertelnote:
\ibu0{1}0\zqb0{1}\qsk\tbu0\zqb0{1} \kern 4pt = \qu1
\end

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

The result was:
#############################
bash-2.03# tex exp.tex

<...
l.4 Eine Achtelnote \zcu1
                          \kern 6pt besitzt genau den halben Notenwert
?

What did I do wrong? Anyway, what I need are the rhythmic symbols -what you
also had in your example- plus a small "bar" symbol (for showing the
position in the bar).

Regards
Alexandros
