----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]>I am engraving a set of parts that have extensive multimeasure rests. In many cases during these rests
there are slight tempo modifications such as "rather broader", "poco rall.", "In tempo" and so on. Do you > break the rests to show where these modifications occur? None are a significant change in metre or
mood. Thanks for your comments.

I break multimeasure rests only for time changes, key sig. changes, main tempo headings (large, boldface), fermatas, and railroad tracks. For any rest of more than 20 mm. duration, I always provide a cue at the end. (Sometimes I put the cue in the middle if that will be clearer--but the main point is that nobody should ever have to count out more than 20 mm. w.o a clear signpost.) (Also, if the "cue" is just that some particular instrument enters at a given spot, I may just put the inst's. name in parentheses rather than write out a full cue.)
