Italian term

fatidico segno scritto

Italian to English Other Music
From a description of a Jazz Band «nonostante sappia da sempre che l'Italia pullula di talenti, mi ha stupita imbattermi in una tale concentrazione di musicisti fortissimi, come in questa band: creature curiose, entusiaste, jazzisti di formazione ma preparati anche in molti altri linguaggi e a proprio agio col *fatidico segno scritto*».

Music notation

«the fateful music notation», «written music» (this, following the prejudice according to which jazz musicians are ill at ease with music notation).
Peer comment(s):

Thanks Michael… Yeah, that must be the writer's intention
neutral philgoddard : I don't think "fateful" or "wicked" work very well for "fatidico".
