Hi Sandro,
Sandro Santilli-2 wrote > One musician I play with prefers reading DO RE MI FA > as chord symbols, but the rest of use still want C D E F... the \language command is used to tell LilyPond what notes (or chord roots) you want. To control the way LilyPond displays them, you might need commands like \italianChords, \germanChords etc.: % ------------------------ \version "2.19.83" << \new ChordNames \chordmode { c1 a:m f g } \new ChordNames \chordmode { \italianChords c1 a:m f g } \new Staff { \clef bass c1 a f g } >> % ------------------------ Does that help?
