Showing a little ignorance here and looking for advice. I'd like to
notate a rolled chord with the rhythms of the roll specified -
happens to be a 16th note triplet before the barline landing on the
4th note of the chord on the db with all notes held. Ties to the
held notes don't work (except for the last triplet note). I could
use slurs as ties, but maybe a slur over the whole figure ending on
the db is sufficient to indicate the sustained notes. But this looks
a little funny, because the chord shows up with all the notes on the
db, and that makes it look like they are re-struck there which, of
course, they are not. It seems ridiculously picky to notate the
value of each note using voices, or layers, and I may be being overly
picky even with this notation. How is this done in piano music.
Sorry for my ignorance of this notation convention. All grace notes
and no rhythm? What to do to make it work without being overly picky.
Thanks,
Chuck
