Oops. The rule is right but I visualized this wrong: > That is the opposite of the way bass and tenor > notes shift in a stem collision, assuming four parts. Here are the correct collision defaults: A tenor note shifts to the left of a bass note and a tenor rest shifts to the left of the stem of a bass note. An alto note shifts to the right of a soprano note but an alto rest shifts to the left of the stem of a soprano note. A colliding inside rest is always centered in front of a stem, 100 pct of the time.
