single ties vs. accumulating arpeggio

[Christina Robertson]

This is for analysis, with the right hand intervals reading upward.  Somehow, the use of the accumulating arpeggio looks messy; should they all perhaps be single ties?  What might be the most clean way to present this?  Thanks a million!  Christina

Kathleen,

Please use this attached measure 16 as the measure in question.  I could more appropriately use a full measure in-accord for the previous measure 18.  Thanks again!

Hi Christina!

Thanks for the great question. I think what you have shown in measure 16 is good. A couple of things to adjust – when transcribing the right hand to have intervals read upwards, you must use the “special right hand sign” (dots 46, 345, 345).

The tie after the F4 8^th note should be a chord tie, as the end of the accumulating arpeggio.

Everything else looks as clear as can be!

(Measure 18 needs a little adjustment – the G4 8^th note should be followed by a chord tie, while the E5 dotted half should be followed by a single tie.)

Thank you SO MUCH!
