The <forward> element

Parent elements: <measure> (partwise), <part> (timewise)

The <backup> and <forward> elements are required to coordinate multiple voices in one part, including music on multiple staves. The <forward> element is generally used within voices and staves. Duration values should always be positive, and should not cross measure boundaries or mid-measure changes in the <divisions> value.
