evaluate(optional)Specifies the intended meaning when a participant in a relationship is itself a
pointer. Allowed values are: "all" (If an element pointed to is itself a pointer, then the target of that pointer will
be taken, and so on, until an element is found which is not a pointer.), "one" (If an element pointed to is itself a pointer, then its target (whether a pointer
or not) is taken as the target of this pointer.), "none" (No further evaluation of targets is carried out beyond that needed to find the
element(s) specified in plist or target attribute.)

analyticContains bibliographic elements describing an item (e.g., an article or
poem) published within a monograph or journal and not as an independent publication.
annotProvides a statement explaining the text or indicating the basis for an
assertion.
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.
biblStructContains a bibliographic citation in which
bibliographic sub-elements must appear in a specified order.
endingAlternative ending for a repeated passage of music; i.e., prima volta, seconda volta,
etc.
expansionIndicates how a section may be programmatically expanded into its 'through-composed'
form.
itemSingle instance or exemplar of a source/manifestation.
lemContains the lemma, or base text, of a textual variation.
manifestationA bibliographic description of a physical embodiment of an expression of a work.
measureUnit of musical time consisting of a fixed number of note values of a given type,
as
determined by the prevailing meter, and delimited in musical notation by bar lines.
monogrContains bibliographic elements describing an item, for example, a
published book or journal, score, recording, or an unpublished manuscript.
ptrDefines a traversible pointer to another location, using only attributes to
describe the destination.
rdgContains a single reading within a textual variation.
refDefines a traversible reference to another location. May contain text and
sub-elements that describe the destination.
relatedItemContains or references another bibliographic item which is related to the
present one.
relationDescribes a relationship or linkage amongst entities.
sourceA bibliographic description of a source used in the creation of the electronic
file.
workProvides a detailed description of a work — a distinct intellectual or artistic creation
—
specifically its history, language use, and high-level musical attributes (e.g., key, tempo,
meter, medium of performance, and intended duration).
arpegIndicates that the notes of a chord are to be performed successively
rather than simultaneously, usually from lowest to highest. Sometimes called a "roll".
beamSpanAlternative element for explicitly encoding beams, particularly those which
extend across bar lines.
bendA variation in pitch (often micro-tonal) upwards or downwards during the course of
a
note.
bracketSpanMarks a sequence of notational events grouped by a bracket.
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.
hairpinIndicates continuous dynamics expressed on the score as wedge-shaped graphics, e.g., <
and >.
slurIndication of 1) a "unified melodic idea" or 2) performance technique.
tieAn indication that two notes of the same pitch form a single note with their combined
rhythmic values.
tupletSpanAlternative element for encoding tuplets, especially useful for tuplets
that extend across bar lines.
mordentAn ornament indicating rapid alternation of the main note with a secondary note, usually
a
step below, but sometimes a step above.
trillRapid alternation of a note with another (usually at the interval of a second
above).
turnAn ornament consisting of four notes — the upper neighbor of the written note, the
written
note, the lower neighbor, and the written note.
spContains an individual speech in a performance text.
stageDirContains any kind of stage direction within a dramatic text or
fragment.
cpMarkA verbal or graphical indication to copy musical material
written elsewhere.
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.
fingAn individual finger in a fingering indication.
fingGrpA group of individual fingers in a fingering indication.
accidRecords a temporary alteration to the pitch of a note.
articAn indication of how to play a note or chord.
attaccaAn instruction to begin the next section or movement of a composition without
pause.
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.
ornamAn element indicating an ornament that is not a mordent, turn, or trill.
phraseIndication of 1) a "unified melodic idea" or 2) performance technique.

above,
below, or between staves, but not on the staff.

element.

determined by the prevailing meter, and delimited in musical notation by bar lines.
octaveAn indication that a passage should be performed one or more octaves above or below
its
written pitch.
