Hello everybody,

this is a big thank you and a shout of joy over having LilyPond!

The question came up about a curious key signature used by Britten, which indicates only Ab and C#, and how to replicate this in Sibelius. Which involves a fake clef, lots of manual work, and hidden accidentals for correct playback.

And LilyPond just has a fabulous, simple, and proper solution:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.19.53"
brittenPhrygolydian = #`((0 . ,NATURAL) (1 . ,FLAT) (2 . ,NATURAL)
    (3 . ,SHARP) (4 . ,NATURAL) (5 . ,NATURAL) (6 . ,FLAT))

\relative {
  \key g \brittenPhrygolydian
  g'4 as b cis
  d e f g
}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Yeah!

Best, Simon
