I assumed you meant a single held note with an accent at the beginning and a quick diminuendo. That can't be done with key velocity, as you're varying the volume of a single note. > . . .

Well, to me, sfz is an accent, whereas fp or sfp is something entirely different. It would entirely depend on the musical context as to how I would implement it. An executable shape would have to be followed by something to restore the original volume. There are no good solutions here, so far as I can tell. I've never had to create playback for music that had lots of the fp- type markings in it, so I've just done the with MIDI continuous data, on an ad hoc basis and used the articulations for print only (no playback). -- David W.
