Dunael Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 (m.19)/ (m.132ff)' QUOTE]Well, it should mean : mesure number 19. So you have to count 19 mesures (mesures are separated by vertical barline - just in case you wonder). I guess that m.132ff would me for me that you have to see at the fortissimo sign (ff) at the mesure 132 ! :blush: Any other questions !?

Daniel Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Measures = bars. M. is short for measure FF I'm pretty sure doesn't refer to fortissimo, but I can't actually remember what it does refer to.. anyone else know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunael Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 I truly never saw that... but it might be an english term that I don't know about also... ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Yeah... see when I saw it, I assumed the same thing as you, but then every single reference made used ff, so I realised that not all music is fortissimo ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EldKatt Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 I don't know its origin, but "ff" in this context means "and the following (pages, measures, whatever)". You'll want to see measure 132 and the following measures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunael Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Ahah I just thought about one signification of FF... but there problably are people of under 18yo here... so I'll pass ! ahahah ;) (only few people might understand here and it doesn't matter if you don't... really !).
