What is the standard way to notate a sixteenth quintuplet when only the final note is played? What do you put under the bracket:
A quarter rest followed by the sixteenth note?
Two eighth rests followed by the sixteenth note?
Four sixteenth rests followed by the sixteenth note?
Perhaps I'm an inferior musician, but I confess I would have difficulty playing this any different from an ordinary 16th note pickup, unless the tempo is REALLY slow.
For the engraving question, my gut instinct is the middle option. No real logic there, just a sense that it would be least distracting when sight-reading. I'm open to persuasion on that point if others feel differently.
