A.7.1 Trascrizione di musica mensurale
Quando si trascrive musica mensurale, un incipit all’inizio del brano è
utile per indicare il tempo e l’armatura di chiave originali. I musicisti
oggi sono abituati alle stanghette, ma queste non erano note all’epoca
della musica mensurale. Come compromesso, spesso le stanghette vengono
poste tra i righi, uno stile di formattazione chiamato mensurstriche.
