#   part: The current Part. This value resets for every new part.
#   measure: The current measure. This value resets for every new measure and every part.
#   divisions: The current division. This value resets for every new division and every part
#   note: The current note. This value changes for every new note, measure, and part.
#   meter: The most recent meter encountered in the score.
#   key: The most recent key encountered in the score.
#   onset: The Fraction onset time for the next note. This value is reset to 0 for each
#          measure and incremented by the duration of notes, forwards and backups.
#   tempo: A tempo map in score beats.
