it as a chord (this is the reason why the C is minor in the Ce notation,
instead of a regular C note)

~    :   slide
p    :   pull-off
h    :   hammer
(10) :   transition note

Long bridge (Violin part)Disk Time 03:47 mn
It's very easy to pick the cello and pan flute notes played
over that bridge, so I didn't bother writing them.
