I made some test with the code above and discovered something that maybe
for you all was clear but it wasn't for me. Have a look to the following
code:

\version "2.19.81"
\score {
  \new Voice <<
    {f4 g a b}
    {s4\< 4 4 4\!}
  >>
  \layout {}
}

I didn't expect to see this output:



If I understood correctly this is the fact that spacer rest (and normal
rest) does not "propagate".

To fix it I found two different ways.
First one:

\version "2.19.81"
\score {
  \new Voice <<
    {f4 g a b}
    {s4\< s4 s4 s4\!}
  >>
  \layout {}
}



... and second one (but I'm not sure it is "correct" even if it compiles
and works...)

\version "2.19.81"
\score {
  \new Voice <<
    {f4 g a b}
    \new Dynamics {s4\< 4 4 4\!}
  >>
  \layout {}
}


Any comments?

And.... why spacer rests and rests don't "propagate" like note?

Thank you, g.
