Slide (musical ornament)

The slide (Schleifer in German, Coulé in French, Superjectio in Latin)[1] is a musical ornament often found in baroque musical works, but used during many different periods.[1] It instructs the performer to begin two or three scale steps below the marked note and "slide" upward—that is, move stepwise diatonically between the initial and final notes.[2] Though less frequently found, the slide can also be performed in a descending fashion.[2]
