Music Notation at Michigan State University
"The most common articulations are the staccato, accent, tenuto, and the marcato. They are usually placed directly over or under the notehead, not the stem. If the notehead is on a space, the staccato and tenuto marks are placed in the next space. If the notehead is on a line, the staccato and tenuto marks are placed in the space after the next line."

Practice – How to do it - Music Factory
"To be highly productive in your practice, it is best to Divide and Conquer. This means dividing the music up into its different elements and then conquering each one individually. Because it is difficult to take in all the musical elements at once, it is best to methodically go through each one individually and determine what the problem is and then work to improve it."

An interface for real-time classification of articulations produced by violin bowing
portal.acm.org  |  "We introduce a software system for real-time classification of violin bow strokes (articulations). The system uses an electromagnetic motion tracking system to capture raw gesture data. The data is analyzed to extract stroke features. These features are provided to a decision tree for training and classification. Feedback from feature and classification data is presented visually in an immersive graphic environment."  |

Reading Bach's Ideas, Part I by Jonathan Leathwood
"At the heart of this article is the analysis in part 3 of the Prelude to BWV 998. Parts 1 and 2 inquire into Bach’s phrasing and articulation with special emphasis on the role played by rests. A final part returns to issues of texture and articulation in the light of the analysis   -   The four parts of this article are given as four separate HTML documents."

The Scarlatti Project - Music and Research into the composer
"My aim in editing Scarlatti's work has been to work from the basis of his own notational practice, by studying as many as possible of his extant autograph manuscripts, both cantatas and operas. Some of these manuscripts (Olimpia, Non sò qual più m'ingombra, Peno, Perdono) form the principal source of editions I have made. They contain a wealth of detail in bass figuring, (often neglected by copyists), and in some cases dynamic markings, tempo markings, and articulation marking. Recitatives are profusely punctuated in the composer's hand. "
