I'm working on the Glossary for the GDP, and I'm stuck -- so, I'm canvassing
the list. Here's the scenario:
You've written a composition with a passage that needs to be played in a
different octave. When you describe it (this passage) to another musician,
what term do you use? And do you use the same term or a different one for
the actual _process of writing_ the passage in a different octave (if you
even bother to name the process)?
Since this will go into the glossary, please respond with the preferred term
in any of these languages:
Danish
Dutch
English
Finnish
French
German
Italian
Spanish
Swedish
Thanks!
Kurtis
PS: Internally, LilyPond calls this "octavation" ... which I only included
because I couldn't think of a better term.
