Hi Chuck,
I'm currently working on a piano piece that has this issue all over
the place. I am using the tie stubs from Bill's Articulation font
(albeit reduced slightly in size), with a slur over the entire
figure. Traditionally, you would probably put (beginning) tie stubs
on each note of the arpeggio and also (ending) tie stubs before each
note of the resultant chord ("beginning" and "ending" are terms of
convenience -- it's the same character). Although personally I think
it's clear enough with just the beginning tie stubs and the overslur.
Cheers,
- Darcy

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
