tied grace notes
on: June 25, 2010, 01:03:00 AM
Is a tied grace note(a grace note tied to the same note)  played as a single anticipated note, or as two notes?
thanks,
alphie

Tied grace notes are played as a single note with a duration that's the sum of the value of the linked notes.

Do you mean a grace note tied to a main note?  Most likely there will be other notes only sounding on the main beat as well.  In this case the grace note is played only once.

Made a Liszt. Need new Handel's for Soler panel & Alkan foil. Will Faure Stein on the way to pick up Mendels' sohn. Josquin get Wolfgangs Schu with Clara. Gone Chopin, I'll be Bach
