I have a passage of piano music with a lot of kneed beams between the staves,
and there’s too few objects above the bass staff to force enough space. How can
I increase the default spacing between the treble and bass parts of the piano
staff?
Here’s an example. The “dim.” clashes with the beam on beat 1, and beat 4 in
the bass is just a mess.
\version "2.24.1"
top = { \change Staff = "upper" \voiceTwo }
bottom = { \change Staff = "lower" \voiceOne }
upper = \relative c'' {
\key g \minor
\new Voice {
\voiceOne
g8\(\dim gis\! a4\)~ a8\(^\markup {\italic "poco rit."} bes \tuplet 3/2 { c
d ees\) } |
}
}
lower = \relative {
\clef bass
\key g \minor
\new Voice {
\voiceOne
bes16 b \top d f
\bottom b, c \top ees f
\bottom g, c \top ees f
\bottom a, g' \top ees \bottom f |
}
}
\score {
\new PianoStaff {
<<
\new Staff = "upper" \upper
\new Staff = "lower" \lower
>>
}
}
