What does it mean when a string note is flanked left and right by vertical lines?
Thanks,

Dave, I think you are correct. This notation is used repeatedly throughout Barber's Adagio for strings and only has a single vertical line on each side (my printing is slightly blurry so maybe it's a double line and I just can't tell). The time signature is 4/2 and this symbol is used on whole notes that take up the entire measure (i.e. 4 half notes).
Thanks for solving this mini- mystery [:)]
Best,
Jay
