<<though it has got a lot of * demisemiquavers * in it>>
Translation service for this side of the pond for black note with stick and three tails = 32nd note
Wow, sure been a long time since last used this nomenclature for musical notes, uncertain my memory's firm on these, let me see, is that
minim, breve, semi-breve, crotchet, quaver, semiquaver, demisemiquaver
or have i got them a bit muxed ip over eons of rest bars?
Over here
white note no stick is called whole note
white note with stick half-note
black note with stick is quarter note
black note with stick & one tail is eighth note
ditto with two tails is sixteenth (etc)
(dunno what they call white note no stick with brackets, haven't seen one of those in any band music so far)
I made a Hoo-hoo Boo-boo in band, first month, my copy a bit faint in print, asked if that Bar # should have dotted or undotted crotchet, band director blinked, then looked long and hard at his copy before answering tenuto ... dotted Quarter Note ... oops I thought, they don't speak that lingo over here
