[Menvi-discuss] Question

Hi, Lauren,

The more correct way would be to write the first beat, which would be two eighth notes, followed by three repeat signs. Or, if you wanted to, you could write out the first two beats and then do a half measure repeat. If I were doing it, I would probably do it the first way.

 

Hope this helps.

Subject: [Menvi-discuss] Question

 

I have a piece of handbell music that I am transcribing for my son.   It has a series of 8 identical C eighth notes in one 4/4 measure.  Can these be written as dots 1,4,5 followed by a single partial repeat sign of dots 2,3,5,6 to represent the remaining 7 eighth notes in the measure?  I have never used a partial repeat sign and want to make sure I do it correctly.  Thanks!

Lauren
