Mr. Thomas:
Actually the musical term is in Italian. It is acciaccatura. If the little note does not have the stroke it is called an appoggiatura and is played a little bit before the principal note.

Dear community, I would like to know, how You can call in english those small, stroked out notes, which have to be played as fast as possible. I think, grace notes is not exactly the proper name. I have a small example provided, which uses different note-types. The idea is to notate different kinds of rubato. \version "2.16.0" smaller = { \set fontSize = #-3 } normalheads = { \unset fontSize \revert NoteHead #'stencil } squaredheads = { \unset fontSize \override NoteHead #'stencil = #(lambda (grob) (grob-interpret-markup grob (markup #:musicglyph "noteheads.s2la"))) } Music = \relative g' { \cadenzaOn \smaller g16[ ges f ] \normalheads b2 \smaller bes16[ as g ] \squaredheads <des' es > 8 \normalheads a4. \smaller dis,16[-\markup{ \postscript #"0.2 setlinewidth 0 1.5 moveto 3 4 rlineto stroke" } e f ] \normalheads fis1 } \markup { \wordwrap { Small note heads: to be played a little faster. Square note heads: to be played a little slower.Grace notes: as fast as possible.} } \new Staff \with { \remove Time_signature_engraver } { \Music }
