Hi all,Given an instrumental part that plays for 20 measures or so at mf with the occasional rest thrown in, is there a rule of thumb (or something more formal) about when the dynamic should be restated?
It's in my head that if there are two or more full measures of rest, the dynamic should be repeated when the instrument comes in again, for clarity. If there's only a single measure rest (even if there's a beat or two of rest on either side of the empty measure), it's assumed that the last stated dynamic is still in force.
I took a quick look through Ross and Read, but I didn't see anything pertinent.
Thanks, Aaron. _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
