I think he really means a decrescenco hairpin on one note (which 
obviously cannot be found in piano music, but is quite common in vocal 
or string music).


I.e. something like (in these examples, the measures are quite short, in 
reality, these measures in the scores take at least twice the horizontal 
space as these examples do):

\new Voice \relative c'' { << { c1 } { s2\> s\!} >> }

or:

\new Voice \relative c'' { << { c1 } { s2 s4..\> s16\!} >> }

or even (and no, this is NOT the \expressivo articulation):

\new Voice \relative c'' { << { c1 } { s2\< s4..\> s16\! } >> }

Cheers,
Reinhold
