I've seen this notation, but I'm not having much luck producing a workable
example. It would be done with a hidden voice and an arpeggio modified to
look like a bracket.
Simpler would be a very common notation using tied grace notes to indicate
the quick displacement between the parts of the chord. Something like this:
\version "2.16.0"
\new Staff {
\relative c, {
\clef bass
\tieDown
\slashedGrace <a a'>8 ~
<a a' e' a cis>1
}
}
Hope this helps.
David
