I didn't realize that the 2x3/4 division was more common than the 3x2/4
division, but of course you're right about the correct rests in that
case.

That's only if you are using 6/4 as an equivalent to 3/2. The
traditional use of 6/4, however, is that of two 3/4 halfbars. In such
a use of 6/4 I would not consider it correct to use half rests. The
correct rests for the quarternote on the last beat would be:
dotted half rest, quarter rest, quarter rest.

Hi Raymond,
Half rests are used in 6/4. It would look ridiculous to have, for
example, five quarter rests in a row, followed by a quarter note.
The only stipulation is that they should not occur on any beats other
than one, three, and five.
The more contentious question would be whether it was okay to use
_whole_ rests in non-empty 6/4 measures -- for example, a whole rest
followed by a half note.
