Hi Jaques!
The chords do not have any specified duration, so they fall back to the default
duration, which is a quarter note. For them to have a whole notes length at
least the first of them has to have a specified duration, like c1:m . After the
first chord having a specified duration the subsequent ones will inherit that,
the same way as notes.
