Fingering slides
Fingering slides indicate that the performer should slide their nger up/down the neck of the
instrument. They are notated as an angled line between ngerings.
The note at the start of a ngering slide is known as a source note. The note at the end of a
ngering slide is known as the destination note.
A passage with ngering slides
When the source and destination notes are suciently close horizontally, ngering slides are
shown between the ngerings, joining them directly in their existing positions without moving
them. When the source and destination notes are far apart horizontally, ngering slides appear
with a
xed length to the left of the destination note. You can change the length of individual
ngering slides.
