Divisi

See also Expressions. 

A divisi indication is a normal Text Expression that you place in a part (such as a string part) to indicate that the section of players should split up—one group should read the top written notes and the rest should read the bottom written notes, for example. Use the Expression tool to place the marking into the score.

Tip. If you want to create a bracket or “split up” marking as shown above, simply create a second Text Expression that consists only of a “less-than” marking (SHIFT+comma), like this: <, or a left bracket, like this: [, so that you clearly indicate which notes are to be played by each group of players.
