Text Instructions
Given that there are a limited number of articulation markings but seemingly infinite
technique variations, text instructions are responsible for a substantial number of
sound changes. Typically entered using Expression and/or Technique Text, nearly all
text instructions remain in effect until explicitly disabled making them an ideal choice
for sound changes that should persist for an extended period of time.
Used alone, text instructions should be written in the score at the place the technique
is to begin and a reset instruction entered where the technique should end. For exam-
ple, a passage to be played pizzicato might be indicated with the text instruction pizz.
and ended with the instruction arco. While some text instructions come in natural
pairs (such as pizzicato and arco, above; mute and open, etc.), others do not and will
need to be reset with an appropriate instruction such as normal or ord.
The most important thing to remember is that unlike a live musician, who will
interpret instructions in the context of the piece, Sibelius reacts to markings literally.
Context may indicate that a marcato text instruction should naturally be discontin-
ued, and any live player would recognize this, but Sibelius must receive an explicit
instruction or the marcato sound will persist.
Differences between markup for live players and computer playback are quite evident
here, but it is possible to prepare scores that play correctly without excess visible and
unnecessary markup. Any text instruction that you do not want to print can be hidden
in the score by entering a tilde
