Add "stave" to this. Actually, I would have defined a stave as a line of music, and a system as a group of linked staves played simultaneously. But that all depends on how you understand the word "line" :-)
"Stave" or "staff"?! Are these identical? I thought "stave" is just a wrong singular form of "staves", which itself is the correct plural of "staff"?
Merriam-Webster says nothing about these words in a musical context... :-( Cheers, Alexander
