To Leo Konno
"Accidentals (including grace notes) only affect the pitch to which they directly refer, not other octaves, for the duration of the bar in which the accidental is written."
STRINGS:
Make a difference between Gliss. and Port. Gliss. = shift the pitch immediately (and travel during the full length of the note duration).
S.P.= sul pont. P.O.= position ordinary Long note/tremolo: change bows as many times as you need. Do NOT vibrato on gliss. = means "open", "close" by hand (on harmon mute) very fast until the end of the bracket unless stated otherwise.
