Thanks, Nathan,

The slurs look fine, and it's clear from the output that the parenthesized
trill note needs to go up higher. Maybe there is a way to do this with
padding or something else that will use Lilypond's automated spacing
correctly to move everything around without causing other collisions.

thanks for your advise,
Jeff
