Hi everyone,
I want to add instrument names to each voice in a DrumStaff before any
of the musical content begins, to create a key that shows which
limbs/instruments correspond to which note.
I've uploaded an example from the book I'm trying to emulate so you
can see what I mean:

Is there any way to do this?

Hi Jesse,
Here's an example of how to stack up different names in front of a
single staff using a column markup. You'll have to experiment a bit to
reduce the space between the names, probably, since these are a bit far
apart. HTH,
Jon
\version "2.12.0"
notes = \relative c' { c d e f }
\score {
\new Staff = "Percussion" {
\set Staff.instrumentName = \markup \right-column \fontsize #-4 {
"R.H./L./H."
\line { "L.H./S.D." }
\line { "R.F./B.D./Melody" }
\line { "L.H./H.H." }
}

}
}
