[MEI-L] analysis

[Roland, Perry (pdr4h)]

Hi, Maja,



We could add @hfunc to <chord>, but I've always thought that it would duplicate the function of <harm>, which is to assign harmonic labels.  I could be wrong though, if <harm> were defined only to be used for transcription and not analysis.  Anyone else have thoughts on this?

Dear List,

writing the guidelines of the analysis module, I am wondering about the use of the @hfunc.
It is allowed within a <note> for describing a note as a "keynote" or "root" or anything else.
But the @hfunc is not permitted wtihin the <chord>, although the @mfunc e.g. is allowed.
In my opinion it would make sense to use the @hfunc also on chords for describing the function of it
in a musical work, such as a "tonic" or something like that.
So I think the att.chord.anl should be memberOf att.harmonicfunction.
Is it a bug or any other opinions?

Best regards,
Maja
