Element turn is used to encode turns. Such ornament is a short figure consisting of the note above the one indicated, the note itself, the note below the one indicated, and the note itself again. It is marked by a mirrored S-shape lying on its side above the staff. The details of its execution depend in part on the exact placement of the turn mark.
