annotProvides a statement explaining the text or indicating the basis for an
assertion.
beamSpanAlternative element for explicitly encoding beams, particularly those which
extend across bar lines.
bracketSpanMarks a sequence of notational events grouped by a bracket.
caesuraBreak, pause, or interruption in the normal tempo of a composition. Typically indicated
by
"railroad tracks", i.e., two diagonal slashes.
chordA simultaneous sounding of two or more notes in the same layer *with the same
duration*.
cpMarkA verbal or graphical indication to copy musical material
written elsewhere.
dirAn instruction expressed as a combination of text and symbols, typically above,
below, or between staves, but not on the staff — that is not encoded elsewhere in
more specific
elements, like tempo, dynam or repeatMark.
dynamIndication of the volume of a note, phrase, or section of music.
fermataAn indication placed over a note or rest to indicate that it should be held longer
than
its written value. May also occur over a bar line to indicate the end of a phrase
or section.
Sometimes called a 'hold' or 'pause'.
fingAn individual finger in a fingering indication.
fingGrpA group of individual fingers in a fingering indication.
glissA continuous or sliding movement from one pitch to another, usually
indicated by a straight or wavy line.
hairpinIndicates continuous dynamics expressed on the score as wedge-shaped graphics, e.g., <
and >.
lineA visual line that cannot be represented by a more specific; i.e., semantic,
element.
metaMarkA graphical or textual statement with additional / explanatory information about the
musical text. The textual consequences of this intervention are encoded independently
via
other means; that is, with elements such as add, del, etc.
octaveAn indication that a passage should be performed one or more octaves above or below
its
written pitch.
ornamAn element indicating an ornament that is not a mordent, turn, or trill.
phraseIndication of 1) a "unified melodic idea" or 2) performance technique.
repeatMark
An instruction expressed as a combination of text and symbols – segno and coda – typically
above,
below, or between staves, but not on the staff.
restA non-sounding event found in the source being transcribed.
slurIndication of 1) a "unified melodic idea" or 2) performance technique.
spaceA placeholder used to fill an incomplete measure, layer, etc. most often so that the
combined duration of the events equals the number of beats in the measure.
tabGrpA group of simultaneous tab notes, comparable to a chord in CMN. Rarely, may also contain rests, as in some "German" lute tablatures.
trillRapid alternation of a note with another (usually at the interval of a second
above).
tupletA group of notes with "irregular" (sometimes called "irrational") rhythmic values,
for
example, three notes in the time normally occupied by two or nine in the time of five.
tupletSpanAlternative element for encoding tuplets, especially useful for tuplets
that extend across bar lines.
Common Music Notation (CMN) repertoire component declarations.
beamSpanAlternative element for explicitly encoding beams, particularly those which
extend across bar lines.

frequently found in performer parts.
octaveAn indication that a passage should be performed one or more octaves above or below
its
written pitch.
