Arpeggio signs
Arpeggio signs are vertical lines that indicate chords are to be played arpeggiated, or spread, so that the notes in the chord are played very quickly one after another. Arpeggio signs are normally shown as vertical wavy lines.
Length of arpeggio signs
The length of arpeggio signs is determined by the pitch range of notes in the voices/staves to which the arpeggio sign applies.
