If this is an edition of some Baroque keyboard music, then OCTO's solution is fine. If this is not Baroque keyboard music, I would use the following notation, because OCTO's symbol is only familiar to keyboard players.

Re: Behind Bars
Vaughan, I look forward to reading the book and will certainly not hold its title against it.

Re: Behind Bars
OCTO, Do you think they would send me a free copy if I agree to review it extensively for this forum? Maybe if I take back my comment about the title? (-:

Re: Clef design comparision
I have never seen a treble clef that I have loved without reservation, and Fred's group is no exception. Is it possible that the symbol is simply impossible to make beautiful? These are either misshapen or too small. 1 and 7 seem to be leaning forward. The others are upright. On the other hand, I fi...

Re: Notational curiosity?
As you said, Vaughan, Cosi is practically crawling with them and it is definitely a colla part indication or even calling for a cadenza using the given notes as a framework. That leads to speculation about the fermatas in the Schubert. Improvisation in the Arpeggione Sonata? It would make sense give...

OCTO,I just changed my embedded images to gifs with reduced file size, because some were not showing up in the text. Could you please list the file types and sizes allowed to be embedded and attached?

Re: Quarter rest design
I am curious, Fred. Knut, I think that your 1/4 rest is perfect in terms of design, but is angled a little too much to the left (what I meant by "falling forward") for my taste. I like all of your other rests, but agree that the balls at the end of the 1/8 etc. rests are a little big. Howe...

Re: Notational curiosity?
So we seem to have a consensus. And the Baerenreiter complete edition agrees. Great! I am doing yet another clarinet and piano arrangement and that is what I will do here. I would also interpret it as prolonging the last four notes of the ritardando in almost agonizing suspense. It is interesting th...

Notational curiosity?
The following is from the autograph of Schubert's "Arpeggione" Sonata. His fermatas tend to be large and florid, but in this case it is unclear as to what note the fermata applies to. Could this be a "collective fermata" encompassing several notes? Or was he just in a hurry? The ...
