Now, concerning the semiology for "Ni-hil sol-li-ci-ti si-tis," here
it is, syllable by syllable, (V = Vatican edition; SG = St. Gall
notation; L = Laon 239, which is uses Messine notation)
Ni - SG Bivirga, which can stand for two strong re[ercissove notes or
two high notes or two high not4es which are strong.
L Two uncinus, therefore two strong repercussive notes. The sign
before the uncinus is a mystery
hil L Liquescent torculus, with 2nd and 3rd notes of augmented
duration. Cf. Cardine's Semiology, pages 12 and 14; also page 52 for
interpretation.
SG The same interpretation. The "s" (altius) simply means that the
final note of this neum is high.
sol V, SG and L all have a liquescent clivis.
li V, following SG, has a salicus, shich should be a scandicus, as given
in L. (A genuine salicus has a full step followed by a half step, not
two successive full steps.)
ci V, SG, and L all have a single note of syllabic duration.
ti V has a pes (podatus) subpunctis with all notes of the same lengthj.
SG has a pes subpunctis, with the first note augmented (indicated by
the episema) and the other notes short.
L also has a pes subpunctis, with the first note augmented (indicated
by the uncinus, separation of neumatic elements, and the use of the
letter "t." The final uncinus also indicates a bit of lengthening, as
proved by my doctoral dissertation.
si V, SG, and L all have a pressus, made up of a clivis and a pressus.
In L, the fancy first note is written as it is for the sake of
calligraphic beauty. (The Messine notation is a very elegante-looking
tis V, SG, and L all have a long pes with both notes long.
********************
I do not have the diastematic notation for this. Consequently, if there
are any pitch-related mistakes, I am unable to identify them.
I trust that this all makes sense to you. Again, I look forward to
your returning for the Institute 2000.
Best wishes.
