Class Duration

The <duration> element

Parent elements: <backup>, <figured-bass>, <forward>, <note>

Duration is a positive number specified in division units. The <duration> element represents the intended duration vs. the notated duration (for instance, differences in dotted notes in Baroque-era music). Differences in duration specific to an interpretation or performance should be represented using the <note> element's attack and release attributes.

The <duration> element moves the musical position when used in <backup> elements, <forward> elements, and <note> elements that do not contain a <chord> child element.
