5Chord tremolos look like beams, but are a kind of repeat symbol.
6To avoid confusion, chord tremolo beams do not reach the stems, but
7leave a gap.  Chord tremolo beams on half notes are not ambiguous,
8as half notes cannot appear in a regular beam, and should reach the
9stems.

11In this example, each tremolo lasts exactly one measure.

13(To ensure that the spacing engine is not confused we add some regular
14notes as well.)
