\chapter{Smaller (or Larger) Notes in Normal-Sized Staves}
|
|
Here we describe how to change the size of note symbols without changing the
|
|
size of the staff itself. Changing overall staff size will be treated in
|
|
Chapter~\ref{staffspacing}.
|
|
|
|
\section{Arbitrary sequences of notes}
|
|
Written-out ornaments and \itxem{cadenzas} are usually typeset with
|
|
smaller notes and spacing than normal. The smaller \ital{size} can be
|
|
initiated anywhere inside a \verb|\notes| group by stating
|
|
\keyindex{smallnotesize} or \keyindex{tinynotesize}. Normal note size is then
|
|
restored by \keyindex{normalnotesize} or simply by terminating the
|
|
\verb|notes| group and starting another. Smaller \ital{spacing} must also be
|
|
explicitly indicated, usually by redefining \verb|\noteskip| in some way.
|
|
|

Similarly, you may use
|
|
\keyindex{largenotesize} or \keyindex{Largenotesize} to get \emph{larger} notes.

\section{Grace notes}
|
|
Grace notes are a special case of small and tiny notes, namely single-stemmed
|
|
eighth notes with a diagonal slash through the flag. To enable this, there
|
|
are the macros \keyindex{grcu}\pitchp\ and \keyindex{grcl}\pitchp, which by
|
|
themselves would
|
|
produce normal-sized eighth notes with a slash. They should be used along
|
|
with the note size reduction macros and spacing reduction macros just
|
|
discussed. In addition, chordal grace notes can be built as in the following
|
|
example:
|
|
|
|
\begin{music}\nostartrule
|
|
\startextract
|
|

|
|
\NOTEs\wh i\en
|
|
\zendextract
|
|
\end{music}
|
|
\noindent which was coded as
|
|
\begin{quote}\begin{verbatim}

|
