GUIDO Notation - Examples

Please also consult the GUIDO NoteServer samples for demos of using GUIDO.

Example 1:

2 voices, 2 staves; dynamic markings in first voice
{ [\title<"No.3"> \tempo<"Andantino">
  \staff<1> \clef<"g"> \key<+1> \meter<"3/8">
  \i<"p"> d2/8 |
 \sl(\dim(d h1)) h
 \sl(\dim(h g)) g
 \sl(\cresc(f# a c2))
 \sl(c h1) ],
[ \staff<2> \clef<"g">  \key<+1> \meter<"3/8">
  _/8 |
  h1 _ _
  g _ h0
  \sl(c1 f# a)
  \sl(a g)]
}

Example 2:

2+1 voices, 2 staves; dynamic markings in extra voice
{ [\title<"No.3"> \tempo<"Andantino">
  \staff<1> \clef<"g"> \key<-1> \meter<"6/8">
  \sl(a1/8 h& c2) \sl(f1/4 f2/8)
  \sl(\tie(e/8 e/18) g f e f g)
  h&1/8 ],
[ \staff<2> \clef<"g">  \key<-1> \meter<"6/8">
  f1/8 _ _ _/4 a/8
  \sl(h&/4. g/8) ],
[ \i<"dolce"> _/8 \cresc(_*5/8)
  \dim(_*4/8)]
}

Example 3:

one voice; grace notes and meter-change
{ [\title<"II"> \tempo<"Adagio">
  \staff<1> \clef<"tenor"> \key<-5>
  \meter<"4/4"> \i<"p"> \i<"espress">
  \sl(h&0/8 f1 d&2/4)
  \grace(c/16 d&) \sl(c/8 h&1 c2 d&)
 | \meter<"5/4">
  \sl(h&0/8 f1 d&2/8. c/32 d& e&/8 d&)
  \grace(c/16 d&) \sl(c/8 h&1 c2 \grace(e&) d&)
  ] }
