Next: Breath marks, Previous: Slurs, Up: Curves
Phrasing slurs (or phrasing marks) that indicate a
musical sentence are written using the commands \( and
\) respectively:
c4\( d( e) f(
e2) d\)
Typographically, a phrasing slur behaves almost exactly like a
normal slur. However, they are treated as different objects; a
\slurUp will have no effect on a phrasing slur. Phrasing
slurs may be manually placed above or below the notes, see
Direction and placement.
c4\( g' c,( b) | c1\)
\phrasingSlurUp
c4\( g' c,( b) | c1\)
Simultaneous phrasing slurs are not permitted.
\phrasingSlurUp,
\phrasingSlurDown,
\phrasingSlurNeutral.
