Two notes very close to each other

• May 16, 2017 - 01:36

I do not know how it is called that crotchet note very close to a quaver note, at the centre of the picture, and how to draw it in Musescore. The same at the right of the picture where there are two crotchet notes very close to each other. Please, tell me the name of those group of notes, or what they mean, and how to draw them in Musescore.

If you look closely there are 3 "voices" being depicted in the first measure of the picture. A voice being defined as an independent music line.

One voice consists of d-natural, 2 1/4 rests (I'm american)
another voice consists of a 1/8 rest followed by 5 1/8 notes
The final voice is a singe 1/4 note A an octave below the a in the second voice I identified. I suspect this is from some sort of fugue and this third voice starts a new phrase, call or response or whatever it's called and continues with the A in the next measure with the line drawn to the bass clef.
