| Sep 2, 2019 at 7:59 | comment | added | Walter | I think the first is more in line with what I’m looking for specifically. So if I do that, would I label the first group (on the upper staff) “div. a3”, since the Vln. I section is split in three parts across two staves, or would I label it “div. a2”? EDIT: Also, if I have two groups playing identical notes on the first staff, would this be clear if I write double notes (side-by-side noteheads)? Keep in mind, this is through the entire piece, so I’m not sure if that’s proper. | |
