When I notate a fermata it seems that the ritard continues as though there IS no femata, making the fermata last an inordinate amount of time. (The next measure after the fermata assumes "a tempo.")
What are the actual "steps" to achieving the desired length of the fermata and still allowing the ritard prior to, plus, of course the next measure return to "a tempo?"
Thanks,
John
