Editing Notes inégales (section)

===Lullist short–long pairs===

Occasionally the long–short version of ''notes inégales'' was reversed to a short–long, known sometimes as the [[Lombard rhythm]] or the Scotch snap.

The practice of slurred pairs of notes being possibly an indication of ''short–long "notes inégales"'' has been suggested to extend further than France to "French (Lullist) modelled" compositions throughout Europe, especially Germany, Austria, and England, and even to influence the performance of slurred pairs of notes in the fast movements of [[Ludwig van Beethoven|Beethoven]] (and other non-French and non-Baroque composers), such as in the [[Piano Sonata No. 24 (Beethoven)|Sonata in F{{music|#}} major, Op.78]], among other sonatas, where the tempo and the slurred pairs can only result in a [[Lombard rhythm|Lombardic]] or snapped ''short–long "notes inégales"'' performance.

In Restoration England, in the French modelled, Lullist influenced works of [[Henry Purcell]], [[William Croft]], [[Jeremiah Clarke]] and their contemporaries, the short–long slurred pairs of ''notes inégales'' can be found throughout the musical literature, and often variant sources "write out" the short–long "snapped" ''notes inégales'' rhythms explicitly.
