Attributes
glyph.auth, glyph.name, glyph.num, glyph.uri
glyph.auth(optional)A name or label associated with the controlled vocabulary from which the value of glyph.name or glyph.num is taken, or the textual content of the element. Suggested values are: "smufl" (Standard Music Font Layout.)

divLineRepresents a division (divisio) in neume notation. Divisions indicate short, medium, or long pauses similar to breath marks in modern notation.
accidRecords a temporary alteration to the pitch of a note.
arpegIndicates that the notes of a chord are to be performed successively rather than simultaneously, usually from lowest to highest. Sometimes called a "roll".
articAn indication of how to play a note or chord.
barLineVertical line drawn through one or more staves that divides musical notation into metrical units.
beatRptAn indication that material on a preceding beat should be repeated.
bracketSpanMarks a sequence of notational events grouped by a bracket.
breathAn indication of a point at which the performer on an instrument requiring breath (including the voice) may breathe.
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*.
clefIndication of the exact location of a particular note on the staff and, therefore, the other notes as well.
cpMarkA verbal or graphical indication to copy musical material written elsewhere.
custosSymbol placed at the end of a line of music to indicate the first note of the next line. Sometimes called a "direct".
dotDot of augmentation or division.
episemaEpisema.
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'.
glissA continuous or sliding movement from one pitch to another, usually indicated by a straight or wavy line.
grpSymA brace or bracket used to group two or more staves of a score or part.
halfmRptA half-measure repeat in any meter.
harpPedalHarp pedal diagram.

meterSigWritten meter signature.
mordentAn ornament indicating rapid alternation of the main note with a secondary note, usually a step below, but sometimes a step above.
mRestComplete measure rest in any meter.
mRptAn indication that the previous measure should be repeated.
