Multiple scores(movements) on one page
I'm afraid you can't understand this mail because of my poor English.
Please look at the picture at:
http://lh5.ggpht.com/_Rub71FvXx30/SiTo4l9iACI/ABI/7lYeF1QLflY/s800/ImageMovements.JPG
I'm writing a suite that consists of 3 movements (Holst's First Suite) .
I want to print the first movement on the first page , the second
movement and the third movement on the second page ,and the rest of
third movement on the third page.
So I wrote like this:
--
\bookpart {
\header {
title = \markup {First Suite in E \super \flat for Military Band}
composer = \markup {Gustav Holst}
subtitle = I. Chaconne.
}
\score {
\new Staff \FirstMov
}
}
\bookpart {
\header {
subtitle = II. Intermezzo.
}
\score {
\new Staff \SecondMov
}
}
\bookpart {
\header {
subtitle = III. March.
}
\score {
\new Staff \ThirdMov
}
}
--
But on Lilypond's output there were the first movement on the first
page,the second movement on second page,the third movement on the
third and forth page.
What should I write?
Please tell me.

This bookpart produces your unwanted page break (That's what bookparts

Just put the scores for II. and III. into the same bookpart.

Re: Lilypond and Jazz chords
Hi there, as a jazz player I would like to share my input.
What I need in scores is really chord names.
The chord name denotes the intent of the composer and is much subject
to interpretation.
Some examples:
If you have a dominant chord, you write G7. Most of the time, the
pianist will not play the 5th and depending on the context will play a
9th or a flattened 9th.
If you write G7b9, it just means that if you play a 9th, you should
play a flattened one (probably the melody have a flattened 9th).
In the real book, most 7b5 chords should really be written 7#11, but
this is another story.
I found a score where a chord was named 'phrygian'.
The problem I ran when i wrote chords in Lilypond:
1) I had some difficulties to write the Alt chords (for me it's based
on the superlocrian scale 1 2- 2+ 3 4+ 6- (or 5+) 7-) because the
scale has two seconds. (Note that the diminished scale cannot be
written for now with the chord notation, if you ever want to write a 8
note chord ;) ).
2) There no way to write N.C. : no chord (wouldn't the use of R, r and
s make sense in the chord mode?)
3) I had to use some tricks for chords that last on several measures
for the symbol not to repeat on each measure.
4) I would have liked to use parenthesis around the column for chord
extensions like in most jazz charts. I used brackets instead.
Lilypond of other programs will never be able to interpret notes as
chords (even humans can't do that because there are always ambiguities).
I think the more sensitive approach for pop and jazz is a chord
library with a string as input (maj7) and as output a notation as
markup for chord symbol, optionally as a realisation as notes or chord
diagram (could even have options to select or override the realisation).
I myself need only the chord symbol. Such a simple model is in my
opinion simple to use, customizable and extends easily to other
musics. For me the chord name is more semantics than just notes.
You'll find my current chord exception list below, note that i've used
the unicode chars for the flat and sharp before the extensions as it
gives a very natural layout in this case.
Greetings!

This is not good enough but maybe it'll give some ideas. I have the
feeling that some scheme is necessary but I don't know how to do it. My
first thought on how to do it is to have two voices with the same notes
but with different properties. In one voice, the beam will be solid but
only connect the first two notes, and in the other voice, the beam will
be dashed going from the first to third notes of the triplet. The solid
beam will hide the dashed beam between 1st and 2nd notes, but you'll be
able to see the dashed beams between 2nd and 3rd notes. The dashed slur
and smaller notehead are easy. The main problem is I've never seen a
dashed beam in lilypond before. Anyway here's my time-rushed attempt
using only one voice and a partial beam. It might look nearly decent if
you adjust the beam slant on the 3rd note.

this one has the small beam in the same slope as the other one, and uses a

Re: Compiling files with lots of data
Hey, The piece is not from MIDI input, but rather was generated algorithmically in Python (thus the rigidity of the layout that you picked up on). All of the spaces are intentional. In my newest attempted compile of the work (I killed the old one in a fit of self doubt), I removed the beam engraver and the stem engraver in addition to the bar engraver. I also changed all of the 32nd notes to quarter notes (as every note in the piece was a 32nd note, they are all now quarter notes). So, to summarize: Bar_engraver gone Stem_engraver gone Beam_engraver gone proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 1 4) Slightly more than 2*(3**7) quarter notes (without stems) Grob count: 24833 On hour 15 of my new compile... Keep the suggestions coming! ~Mike On 6/2/09 12:17 AM, -Eluze elu...@gmail.com wrote: is this from midi input? if so you should be sure to apply appropriate --allow-tuplet= options. also, funny durations like s32*231 could indicate some kind of grace notes in the original music see http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond-program/Invoking-mid i2ly http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond-program/Invoking-mid i2ly for more details furthermore, specific Voice options - eg. \voiceOne - should be added manually ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

There is --- it's to do the gruppetto at the end of the trill, that seems to interfere with the first note of the triplet in the MIDI output. It's not something I can fix with articulate.

The same is true for most of the other marks that `articulate' deals with. Unfortunately there are no standard ways of marking that there's a `flat' symbol above the ornament symbol and a `natural' below; there are several ways depending on context. -- Dr Peter Chubb http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au peterc AT gelato.unsw.edu.au http://www.ertos.nicta.com.au ERTOS within National ICT Australia ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

thanks to whomever put this in the LSR...
I was just browsing around in the LSR and found this very useful bit that is just fantastic, I hadn't come across it in any docs - LM, NR, or IR (I did a browser Edit/Find for output-suffix on all of those) - #(define output-suffix you-put-something-here) It's for use in a multi-bookpart .ly file that generates multiple .pdf files. Typically the file names are appended with -1, -2, -3, etc which isn't very helpful. That little bit of code lets you append any bit of text to the file name, so instead of filename-1.pdf you get filename-you-put-something-here-1.pdf Here's where it's located to save someone the time to dig it up - http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=389 I don't know who added this to the LSR, but Thankyou very much, you just saved me much extra work as I have had to manually edit many, many file names to include the instrument name for that particular part.
