Default page and style information
Everything after the initial header information.
Replaces "troparion". Used for any text that will include neumes and may want to be justified.
A syllable of music, which includes a group of neumes and one syllable of lyrics.
A chunk of neumes which includes one base (primary) neume, secondary neumes, and possibly linking neumes, accidentals, etc.
A single musical pitch or melodic gesture. Can take "type" attribute to designate type of neume. Types arguments are "primary", "secondary", "linking", "chronos", "martyria". If no types are specified, the first neume in a group that is not a bareia is assumed to be "primary", and all others are assumed to be "secondary".
Individual lyric syllable (could be hyphen). Can take "con" attribute to designate a connector between lyrics. Ex:
<syllable>
<lyric con="u">Lord</lyric>
<neume-group>
<neume>bare</neume>
<neume type="primary">olig</neume>
<neume type="linking">homaDR</neume>
