I've got a couple measures that I'm struggling to even figure out what I
want the result from Lilypond to be. I've pasted the snippet below. As
picky connoisseurs of good notation, I'm wondering what other people would
do or like to see. :-) I'm leaning toward the second option but am
uncertain.
As a bonus question on Lilypond itself -- what are the differences between
<< { g bf g a ... } { g, g g g } >>
and
<g g,> <bf g,> <g g,> <a g,>
in this context? Aside from the octave changes working relative to
different notes, is there any difference? When should I prefer one to
another?
Thanks again,
Evan
