Rhythm Charts, pt. III - Volta Brackets

Last month in part two of our discussion on rhythm charts (a shorthand system using standard music notation to map out a song) I covered the topic of repeat signs - what they are and how they work. In this month's post I'll be covering volta brackets - otherwise know as 1st and 2nd endings. There is a downloadable PDF link below with musical example. 

Volta Brackets: these are horizontal numbered brackets (1, 2, 3, etc...) which are used for repeated sections having two or more different endings. 

Next month I'll delve into terms and symbols a bit more!
