Hello,
I have some scores that include instruction to change the levers at
the celtic harp. This is shown in different styles, but best
readable is an additional note with the sharp, flat or neutral
sign. You find samples attached.
These additional notes should be surrounded with a rectangle. They
are not played but the player adjusts his harp instead.
So let me describe, what I would like to write. (I know this sounds
like a script for Santa Claus,but I hope that this makes it more
clear.):
- they have no stem
- they are surrounded by a rectangle to indicate that a lever
change is necessary
- the notehead is a bit smaller
- they occur at the start of a score but or at any place.
- they must be fit in the score as any other note, but dont affect
the timing of real notes (see 2.png)
- The lever is adjusted with the left hand and there areless notes
in the lower staff. Therefore you write sometimes a clef symbol
before the additional note to indicate where the lever really has
to be adjusted. But this must not affect the current clef in the
lower staff.
(see 3.png)
An alternative would be a kind of ossia. But this needs additional
space between the staves. That's why I would avoid it in most cases.
Do you have any hint, what should I try?
Best regards,
