music21.articulations

Classes for representing and processing articulations. Specific articulations are modeled as Articulation subclasses.

A Note object has an articulations attribute. This list can be used to store one or more music21.articulations.Articulation subclasses.

As much as possible, MusicXML names are used for Articulation classes, with xxx-yyy changed to XxxYyy. For instance, “strong-accent” in MusicXML is “StrongAccent” here.

Fingering and other playing marks are found here. Fermatas, trills, etc. are found in music21.expressions.

>>> n1 = note.Note('D#4')
>>> n1.articulations.append(articulations.Tenuto())
>>> n1.show()

>>> c1 = chord.Chord(['C3', 'G4', 'E-5'])
>>> c1.articulations = [articulations.OrganHeel(), articulations.Accent()]
>>> c1.show()

A longer test showing the utility of the module:

>>> s = stream.Stream()
>>> n1 = note.Note('c#5')
>>> n1.articulations = [articulations.Accent()]
>>> n1.quarterLength = 1.25
>>> s.append(n1)

>>> n2 = note.Note('d5')
>>> n2.articulations = [articulations.StrongAccent()]
>>> n2.quarterLength = 0.75
>>> s.append(n2)

>>> n3 = note.Note('b4')
>>> n3.articulations = [articulations.Staccato()]
>>> n3.quarterLength = 1.25
>>> n3.tie = tie.Tie('start')
>>> s.append(n3)

>>> n4 = note.Note('b4')
>>> n4.articulations = [articulations.Staccatissimo()]
>>> n4.quarterLength = 0.75
>>> s.append(n4)

>>> n5 = note.Note('a4')
>>> n5.articulations = [articulations.Tenuto()]
>>> n5.quarterLength = 4/3
>>> s.append(n5)

>>> n6 = note.Note('b-4')
>>> n6.articulations = [articulations.Staccatissimo(), articulations.Tenuto()]
>>> n6.quarterLength = 2/3
>>> s.append(n6)

>>> s.metadata = metadata.Metadata()
>>> s.metadata.title = 'Prova articolazioni'  # ital: 'Articulation Test'
>>> s.metadata.composer = 'Giuliano Lancioni'

>>> s.show()

Articulation

class music21.articulations.Articulation(**keywords)

Base class for all Articulation sub-classes.

>>> x = articulations.Articulation()
>>> x.placement = 'below'
>>> x.style.absoluteY = 20
>>> x.displayText = '>'

Equality

Equality of articulations is based only on the class, as other attributes are independent of context and deployment.

>>> at1 = articulations.StrongAccent()
>>> at2 = articulations.StrongAccent()
>>> at1.placement = 'above'
>>> at2.placement = 'below'
>>> at1 == at2
True

Comparison between classes and with the object itself behaves as expected:

>>> at3 = articulations.Accent()
>>> at4 = articulations.Staccatissimo()
>>> at1 == at3
False
>>> at4 == at4
True

Articulation read-only properties

Articulation.name

returns the name of the articulation, which is generally the class name without the leading letter lowercase.

Subclasses can override this as necessary.

>>> st = articulations.Staccato()
>>> st.name
'staccato'

>>> sp = articulations.SnapPizzicato()
>>> sp.name
'snap pizzicato'

Fingering

class music21.articulations.Fingering(fingerNumber=None, **keywords)

Fingering is a technical indication that covers the fingering of a note (in a guitar/fret context, this covers the fret finger, see FrettedPluck for that).

Converts the MusicXML – <fingering> object

>>> f = articulations.Fingering(5)
>>> f
<music21.articulations.Fingering 5>
>>> f.fingerNumber
5

.substitution indicates that this fingering indicates a substitute fingering:

>>> f.substitution = True

MusicXML distinguishes between a substitution and an alternate fingering:

>>> f.alternate = True

Fingerings are the only articulations that apply per note in a chord. Other articulations, e.g., accents, apply to the whole chord and will, therefore, only be associated with the first note of a chord when serializing. Since chords store all articulations in an ordered list, Fingerings are mapped implicitly to the notes of a chord in order. Superfluous Fingerings will be ignored and may be discarded when serializing.

class music21.articulations.FretBend(number: int = 0, *, bendAlter: Interval | ChromaticInterval | None = None, preBend: bool = False, release: float | Fraction | None = None, withBar: str | None = None, **keywords)

Bend indication for fretted instruments

Bend in musicxml

number is an identifier for the articulation. Defaults to 0.

bendAlter is the interval defined by the bend, bend-alter in musicxml. Defaults to None.

preBend indicates if the string is bent before the onset of the note. Defaults to False.

release is the quarterLength value from the start of the note for releasing the bend, if any. Defaults to None.

withBar indicates what whammy bar movement is used, if any. MusicXML supports ‘scoop’ or ‘dip’. Defaults to None.

>>> fb = articulations.FretBend(1, bendAlter=interval.ChromaticInterval(-2),  release=0.5)
>>> fb
<music21.articulations.FretBend 1>
>>> fb.preBend
False
>>> fb.withBar is None

>>> fi
<music21.articulations.FretIndication 3>
>>> fi.number
3

If no argument to the constructor is specified, number defaults to 0.

StringIndication

class music21.articulations.StringIndication(number=0, **keywords)

StringIndication indicates which string a note is played on.

A StringIndication can be constructed as

>>> si = articulations.StringIndication(2)
>>> si
<music21.articulations.StringIndication 2>
>>> si.number
2

If no argument to the constructor is specified, number defaults to 0.
