Accidental question

Post by Hector Pascal »

Hi all,
I have a trill (C to C#) and I noticed that Finale has provided a natural sign afterwards. Is the natural sign necessary there, or is it better that it be removed?

If it is imdeed C-natural, than the auxilliary note would better be spelled as a D-flat. Otherwise you definitely need the natural. To be extra clear, the bottom C should also have a natural.

Depending on the tempo, it might be clearer to tie the two C-naturals.

Thanks, RMK :) I'll give that D-flat option a go!
Cheers,
