level

The level type is used to specify editorial information for different MusicXML elements. If the reference attribute for the level element is yes, this indicates editorial information that is for display only and should not affect playback. For instance, a modern edition of older music may set reference="yes" on the attributes containing the music's original clef, key, and time signature. It is no by default.
