Mordents

A mordent is a form of ornament, akin to a turn (or gruppetto), denoted by the symbol (e.g. ) placed over a note. For complete instructions on creating and manipulating articulation markings, see Articulations. You can’t define the Articulation mordent for playback. You can, however, create a mordent marking as an expression and define it for playback.
