Musical Notation

+
+

Structure

+

+ The Musical Notation section of an encoding is given as a single line of characters. These characters + represent the main body of the notation encoding. To represent complex notational figures, such as + notes, chords, beams, or tuplets, a group of characters can act as a single logical unit. +

+

+ A musical note is the single most complex logical unit within the PAEC. It consists of + one or more characters representing a note on a musical staff. Many characters representing a note + are optional, but where one or more character for a note occurs, they MUST occur in the following + order: +

+
+
    +
  1. (optional) The grace note character, or the grace note group characters;
    2. +
  2. (optional) The octave character(s);
    3. +
  3. (optional) The duration character, followed by a duration dot character;
    4. +
  4. (optional) The accidental character;
    5. +
  5. (optional) The opening fermata character;
    6. +
  6. (required) The note name character;
    7. +
  7. (optional) The closing fermata character;
    8. +
  8. (optional) The trilled note character;
    9. +
  9. (optional) The chord indicator character;
    10. +
  10. (optional) The grace note group end character.
    11. +
+
Order of characters within a note
+
+

+ Logical units MAY be nested to represent complex notational features; for example, a beam will + contain two or more notes. All logical units of the same kind MUST be closed before a new one is + started (i.e., no nested groups of the same kind). +

+

+ Many logical units use the same character(s) to represent the same feature. Notes and rests, + for example, both make use of the duration character(s). +

+

+ Logical units MUST NOT be separated by a space character. +
