"tuplet"의 정의 및 의미

What is a "tuplet"?

A tuplet is a group of notes that are played in a different rhythm than what is normally allowed by the time signature. For example, a triplet is a type of tuplet where three notes are played in the time usually taken by two notes of the same value. Tuplets are marked with a bracket and a number indicating how many notes should be played in the given time. They allow composers to create interesting and varied rhythmic patterns within a piece of music.
