+@subsection Transcription of mensural music
+
+When transcribing mensural music, an incipit at the beginning of the
+piece is useful to indicate the original key and tempo. While today
+musicians are used to bar lines in order to faster recognize rhythmic
+patterns, bar lines where not yet invented during the period of
+mensural music; in fact, the meter often changed after every few
+notes. As a compromise, bar lines are often printed between the
+staves rather than on the staves.
