Section 1.4 of the Notation Manual says about volta repeats:
volta The repeated music is not written out but enclosed between
repeat bar lines. If the repeat is at the beginning
of a piece, a repeat bar line is only printed at the end of the
repeat.
But the following snippet does not generate the initial repeat bar line,
apparently because of the "||" bar line. But the "||" bar line does not
indicate the end of a piece.
I have tried several things to get the inital repeat bar line to appear without
success. I suspect it's not very difficult. Can anyone please tell me how to
do it? And if I'm correct about the problem being caused by the "||" bar line,
the documentation should probably be changed.
\version "2.18.2"
music = \relative b' {
a1 a a a
\bar "||"
\break
\repeat volta 2 { a4 b c d }
}
