The <accid> and <artic> sub-elements may be used instead of the note element’s attributes when accid and artic represent first-class objects, e.g., when they require attributes, such as @x and @y location attributes. Similarly, the <syl> sub-element may be used instead of the @syl attribute. The verse sub-element may be used to group text syllables by verse. The @colored attribute may be used to indicate coloration. In the mensural repertoire, coloration is a temporary change in the underlying mensuration from perfect to imperfect. In the CMN repertoire, coloration is an inversion of the note head’s normal rendition, that is, the note head is void when it would otherwise be filled and vice versa. Do not confuse this with visual color.
