How do you deal with music where there is a lot of repetition of a group of measures, but where the dynamics or other instructions (e.g. pizz/arco) differs between repetitions?
For instance, take Holst's Mars (*cough*). The LilyPond docs have a nice snippet for being able to generate the "bah-bah-bah dum dum bah-bah dum" rhythm at different notes; http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/snippets/pitches#pitches-creating-a-sequence-of-notes-on-various-pitches. But what if I need to be able to attach a dynamic to the first note, or add a crescendo? Is there a way I can do that without foregoing the \rhythm command entirely? Does anyone encounter situations like this? How do you deal with it?
