Hello! I'm writing down the structure of the song "Stargazer" (by Rainbow)
in lilypond and have encountered a situation due to the song's form of
ABABCAE: A is the verse and refrain; B is a pivot or "a tiny bridge"; C is
the interlude; and E is the coda/ending. I've managed to write down a
functional file and proof-tested it by using the \unfoldRepeats snippet.
However, I do not know a way to remove this volta bracket. Is there a way
to hide the volta bracket?
Best regards,
Lucas
