I'm trying to learn the trills in Bach's Christmas Oratorio. there's a fast bit on the words "cease to be fearful" and I've put it into abc as
X:1.3
T:p3
M:3/8
L:1/8
K:D
zE/F/ (5FGFEF|GGA|BBE|BBA|AA
w:cease -------to be fear ful for get lam en ta tion

But the 5 seem to take longer that a quaver. The online guides have helped for triplets. What should I have put?

Try (5:2:5FGFEF.

ABC standards are confused about how to display tuplet beaming. I just tried Michael Eskin's thing (built around abcjs) and it uses single beams when they should be double but I think it plays it right. Maybe (5F/G/F/E/F/ would be better.

You can play it HERE. I suggest you slow it down by changing the tempo on the black bar to, say, 30%

I tried Jacks's suggestion by editing the ABC: it sounded the same to me.

I added a second voice and played about with it. I found 5:1:5 works - See Here

(ABC Explorer might sound different.)

Thanks. I think (5F/G/F/E/F/ sorts it.
