Ciao Urs, thank you for the link! I read the page
http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/learning/on-the-un_002dnestedness-of-brackets-and-ties.nl.html and I understood that "slur markers are not brackets in the mathematical sense but simply mark something to start or end" but don't understand the consequences of this. Wouldn't be possible to slur the four notes a b c d using the other syntax (a b c d) instead of a (b c d) ?
