Ved udgivelsen af den 10. udgave af HØJSKOLESANGBOGENS MELODIBOG er der arbejdet ud fra en mÃ¥lsætning om at Melodibogen skal være brugervenlig og enkel at gÃ¥ til - ogsÃ¥ for mindre øvede pianister - og at akkompagnementet skal virke befordrende og inspirerende for fællessangen. Mange af klaverudsættelserne er de originale i den udstrækning de har foreligget men vi har arbejdet ud fra følgende overordnede principper og ideer:Alla breveVi ved at fællessangstempi i de enkelte sange er steget betydeligt i Ã¥renes løb. Vi har derfor i mange tilfælde valgt at notere sangene i en alla breve fornemmelse. Dermed har vi ogsÃ¥ bevidst bevæget os væk fra dentraditionelle 4-stemmige homofone koralstil og i stedet lavet overbindinger i understemmerne hvor dette mÃ¥tte give mening. PÃ¥ den mÃ¥de har klaversatserne forhÃ¥bentlig fÃ¥et en mere naturlig strøm til hjælp for sangerne. Notationsmæssigt har vi valgt at forlade den traditionelle 4-stemmige koralstil hvor man til enhver tid finder sopran og alt i højre hÃ¥nd og tenor og bas i venstre. Vi har valgt at vise ret præcist hvilke toner der spilles i henholdsvis højre og venstre hÃ¥nd. Denne notationsform gÃ¥r naturligvis ud over stemmeføringsoverblikket men er forhÃ¥bentlig til hjælp for den enkelte pianist.TonearterLigesom det var tilfældet i 17. udgave af Højskolesangbogen har vi mÃ¥tte bøje os for at danskerne har sværere ved at synge de høje toner end de havde tidligere. Vi har derfor transponeret en del satser ned hvilket i nogle tilfælde har medført akkordomlægninger for at fÃ¥ satsen til at klinge tilfredsstillende. Vi har desuden forsøgt at undgÃ¥ tonearter med for mange faste fortegn.Rytmisk notationI sagens natur er der langt flere sÃ¥kaldt 'rytmiske' satser i denne udgave end tidligere. Det er altid problematisk at konstruere en klaversats der til fulde lever op til den feeling og autenticitet man kender. OgsÃ¥ i disse satser er brugervenligheden prioriteret højt og det er da op til den enkelte at
