Hey Ben, good question. I write contemporary classical music. In my score, for example, I have an independent tempo variable as a workaround for the current Lilypond lack of "tempo spanners" like rit., accel., etc. I merge this together in the score, and in the parts. Though not ideal, this is a

Hello again, my workflow with Lilypond involves using Frescobaldi and its useful point & click. It also involves adding many "empty" measures (explicit measures containing a full bar rest with no "multiplication", so: R1 R1 R1, etc.) so that during composition I can just click on a rest wherever
