@funindex \relative
-When octaves are specified in absolute mode it is easy to
-accidentally put a pitch in the wrong octave. Relative octave
-mode reduces these errors since most of the time it is not
-necessary to indicate any octaves at all. Furthermore, in
-absolute mode a single mistake may be difficult to spot, while in
-relative mode a single error puts the rest of the piece off by one
-octave.
+Absolute octave entry requires specifying the octave for every
+single note. Relative octave entry, in contrast, specifies each
+octave in relation to the last note: changing one note's octave
+will affect all of the following notes.
+
+Relative note mode has to be entered explicitly using the
+@code{\relative} command:
@example
\relative @var{startpitch} @var{musicexpr}
@item
The pitch of the first note is relative to
@code{@var{startpitch}}. @code{@var{startpitch}} is specified in
-absolute octave mode, and it is recommended that it be a octave of
-@code{c}.
+absolute octave mode. Which choices are meaningful?
+
+@table @asis
+@item an octave of @code{c}
+Identifying middle C with @code{c'} is quite basic, so finding
+octaves of @code{c} tends to be straightforward. If your music
+starts with @code{gis} above @code{c'''}, you'd write something
+like @code{\relative c''' @{ gis' @dots{} @}}
+
+@item an octave of the first note inside
+Writing @code{\relative gis''' @{ gis @dots{} @}} makes it easy to
+determine the absolute pitch of the first note inside.
+
+@item no explicit starting pitch
+The form @code{\relative @{ gis''' @dots{} @}}) serves
+as a compact version of the previous option: the first note
+inside is written in absolute pitch itself. (This happens to be
+equivalent to choosing @code{f} as the reference pitch.)

This rule corresponds to the common practice in the twentieth
century. It omits some extra natural signs, which were

prints the same accidentals as @code{default}, with
-two exceptions that serve to avoid ambiguity: after temporary

accidentals, cancellation marks are printed also in the following
measure (for notes in the same octave) and, in the same measure,
for notes in other octaves. Hence the naturals before
