Hi all. Many examples of single letter note names (A, B, C, D, E, F, G) appear in music textbooks. UEB requires the "grade 1 symbol indicator" before these letters (except A) when standing alone. When superscript numbers follow a letter, the letter is no longer standing alone, and the (56) is not required before the letter. The (56), however, *is* required before the superscript indicator (35) in literary context.
A typical sequence would then be: (6)(14)(56)(35)(3456)(124), which denotes the note C in the 4th octave, the note we call Middle C.
When several of these letter/superscript numbers appear in a sequence, separated by hyphens, we can use the "grade 1 word indicator" (56)(56) at the beginning. This indicator is terminated by the next space.
1. How many of these letter/superscript number combination are required before we can use the "grade 1 word indicator"?
2. Does the "grade 1 word indicator" allow us to drop the (56) before the superscript indicators within the sequence?
