Hello,<br>
and thanks to Micah for asking this question. I am also interested
in how to approach this issue.<br>
At the moment I am not working on specific examples but just
browsing the guidelines (I take it that we are not talking about
rendering the position of the accident above the note but the
meaning of it = markup) and was wondering whether the @accid.ges
attribute (att.accidental.performed) could handle this. <br>
Guidelines: "records the performed pitch inflection when it
differs from the written accidental". It seems that it can be an
attribute of <note>. So, what if a note has no written
accidental, but an accidental needs to be performed? Here we are
not dealing with an editorial amendment proper (<supplied>)
but we are to make explicit what is implicit in how the music
works (or what the editor believes the original notation means). I
thought that @accid.ges may be a possible alternative to
<reg> (which otherwise I would be inclined to use).<br>
If I am wrong as I suspect ("ges" stands for "gestural"),
could somebody please spend a few words on the intended use of
accid.ges?<br>
<br>
Thanks & cheers<br>

Hello, all,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>My latest question relevant to encoding modern editions of
Renaissance music deals with editorial accidentals, as in the
case of musica ficta. Such an accidental is conventionally
placed above the single note it affects (see attachment).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Possibly the option that best makes use of the intent of
MEI's elements would be to use the <add> tag, containing
the single <accid> element. Or maybe <supplied>
would work as well. Another solution might be to encode the
editorial meaning of such an accidental using the <choice>
tag; while <orig> seems to work for the original reading,
the best tag for the editorial reading is unclear. <reg>?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Has anyone dealt with this issue before?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
<div>Micah</div>
