Available at
<clef>Indication of the exact location of a particular note on the staff and, therefore, the other notes as well.
<clefGrp>A set of simultaneously-occurring clefs.
<beam>A container for a series of explicitly beamed events that begins and ends entirely within a measure.
<beatRpt>An indication that material on a preceding beat should be repeated.
<bTrem>A rapid alternation on a single pitch or chord.
<fTrem>A rapid alternation between a pair of notes (or chords or perhaps between a note and a chord) that are (usually) farther apart than a major second.
<graceGrp>A container for a sequence of grace notes.
<halfmRpt>A half-measure repeat in any meter.
<mRest>Complete measure rest in any meter.
<mRpt>An indication that the previous measure should be repeated.
<mRpt2>An indication that the previous two measures should be repeated.
<mSpace>A measure containing only empty space in any meter.
<multiRest>Multiple full measure rests compressed into a single bar, frequently found in performer parts.
<multiRpt>Multiple repeated measures.
<tuplet>A 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.
<chord>A simultaneous sounding of two or more notes in the same layer *with the same duration*.
<note>A single pitched event.
<pad>An indication of extra visual space between notational elements.
<rest>A non-sounding event found in the source being transcribed.
<space>A 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.
