Complex Type: harmonic

Description

The harmonic type indicates natural and artificial harmonics. Allowing the type of pitch to be specified, combined with controls for appearance/playback differences, allows both the notation and the sound to be represented. Artificial harmonics can add a notated touching-pitch; artificial pinch harmonics will usually not notate a touching pitch. The attributes for the harmonic element refer to the use of the circular harmonic symbol, typically but not always used with natural harmonics.

Content Model

Contains elements as defined in the following table.

Component	Type	Occurs	Description
		1..1
		0..1
artificial	empty	1..1	The artificial element indicates that this is an artificial harmonic.
natural	empty	1..1	The natural element indicates that this is a natural harmonic. These are usually notated at base pitch rather than sounding pitch.

		0..1
base-pitch	empty	1..1	The base pitch is the pitch at which the string is played before touching to create the harmonic.
sounding-pitch	empty	1..1	The sounding-pitch is the pitch which is heard when playing the harmonic.
touching-pitch	empty	1..1	The touching-pitch is the pitch at which the string is touched lightly to produce the harmonic.
