divLineRepresents a division (divisio) in neume notation. Divisions indicate short, medium,
or long pauses
similar to breath marks in modern notation.
graphicIndicates the location of an inline graphic.
anchoredTextContainer for text that is fixed to a particular page location, regardless of changes
made
to the layout of the measures around it.
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.
attaccaAn instruction to begin the next section or movement of a composition without
pause.
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.
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.
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.
curveA curved line that cannot be represented by a more specific element, such as a
slur.
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.
grpSymA brace or bracket used to group two or more staves of a score or
part.
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.
lvA "tie-like" indication that a note should ring beyond its written duration.
mNumDesignation, name, or label for a measure, often but not always
consisting of digits. Use this element when the n attribute on measure does not adequately capture the appearance or placement of the measure
number/label.
mordentAn ornament indicating rapid alternation of the main note with a secondary note, usually
a
step below, but sometimes a step above.
phraseIndication of 1) a "unified melodic idea" or 2) performance technique.
rehIn an orchestral score and its corresponding parts, a mark indicating a
convenient point from which to resume rehearsal after a break.
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.
spContains an individual speech in a performance text.
stageDirContains any kind of stage direction within a dramatic text or
fragment.
tabGrpA group of simultaneous tab notes, comparable to a chord in CMN. Rarely, may also contain rests, as in some "German" lute tablatures.
Common Music Notation (CMN) repertoire component declarations.
