Half note with a slash?
on: December 18, 2003, 02:02:00 AM
In a piece of music, with 2/2 time, I found a measure with two, unconnected half notes, each with a "/" slash through the bar.  Does this mean that one should play each half note as four repeated eights?  What is this called?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that is what you would do.
