Talk:Hundred twenty-eighth note

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Surely a note this short would be highly unusual. Do we have any examples of music using it that we could list? Are there any shorter notes (besides trills, etc.)? Is it only used in slow tempo music? Rmhermen 13:30, Mar 31, 2004 (UTC)

Yes, they're unusual, but not unknown. I guess they would be more common at slow tempi, but everything's relative. Shorter notes are occasionally used, but are even rarer. I don't have any examples to hand of them being used I can add to the article (maybe somebody else?) - if I happen across anything, I'll put it in. --Camembert
There is an Eb major scale and a chromatic scale in the first movement of Beethoven's Sonata Pathetique (Op. 13) that occur in 128 time. See [1]. UninvitedCompany 18:14, 31 Mar 2004 (UTC)
