the word LilyPond
Hi, Everyone who knows a bit about TeX/LaTeX knows what the result looks like when you use \LaTeX or \TeX in your source text. Wouldn't it be nice to have something like that for the word LilyPond ? A standard way to display LilyPond in documents and for example in the default lilypond tagline ? I personally would not choose something fancy like (La)TeX uses. But we could at least always write LilyPond with L and P in uppercase, and decide about and recommend the use of a standard font, one that is available on every system, to use in documents and websites, for the word LilyPond even if the surrounding text uses a different font. Just a thought. -- MT ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Instrument line in header block - first piece only?
Hi everyone,
Quick question for the group: I'm producing part books for all the fugues
in the well-tempered clavier, and I don't like the fact that the
instrument name is printed every time there's a new heading:
\book {
\header {
title = Das Wohltemperierte Clavier
composer = J.S. Bach
instrument = Superius }
\score {
\new Staff { \relative c' {c1} }
\header {
title = FUGA I
piece = a 4}
}
\score {
\new Staff { \relative c' {c1} }
\header {
title = FUGA II
piece = a 4}
}
\paper { print-all-headers = ##t }
}
I'd like to use the instrument line because I do want the name of the
instrument at the top of each page, just not below the heading for each
fugue. And I'd like to use either the title or subtitle line for the
heading of each fugue, and the piece line for indicating the number of
parts. If I switch on all the headers, I get the instrument name
everywhere, and if I turn them off, I get no titles or subtitles. Can
anybody help?
TIA,
Brent.

But a clef should be never be in between lines, which is what Lilypond does. I've seen an engraving of Handel's Messiah in which tenors were notated using C clef placed between 3rd and 4th line. Quite smart, i'd say, because C clef placed this way is equivalent to G clef transposed down an octave. I can find the link if you want. The old clefs reminiscent of chant notation can sit IIRC on either lines or in between. The more modern clefs are rather fixed. In practice, anything but the C clef is not seen shifted vertically, and even the C clef is only seen on anywhere but the middle line mainly in Baroque music and earlier. -- David Kastrup ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Actually, now that I think about it, the default 'instrument' line

really need to be so demonstratively announced between movements or pieces
if they are all part of the same document?

override TupletNumber . Custom text
Hello, I like to work with full tuplet numbers because it makes it clear which version of quintuplet is meant (2:5 or 4:5). Since I don't like errors, however 'traditional' they may have become, I would like to change the 3:2 of a triplet in a more correct 2/3.

Eluze,
I tried what Phil suggested (See

Known issues and warnings. ), which is synchronizing the grace note
with the 2 staves in my simple example. But, it doesn't work with a
complex example. I think there should be a better solution for the
problem.
It should be possible to imitate the grace note while taking the
duration from the following note. Look for graceSettings in
ly/engraver-init.ly for the full list of settings. The downside is
that the grace note is aligned with the first note in other Staves,
although it may be what you want:
\score {
\new PianoStaff
\new Staff {
\once \override Stem #'font-size = #-3
\once \override Flag #'font-size = #-3 % not for Lilypond 2.14
\once \override NoteHead #'font-size = #-3
\once \override Stem #'length-fraction = #0.8
g'8*1/2 _( c''4*3/4 ) d''4
}
\new Staff { \clef bass c4 d4 }
\layout {}
}
g'8*1/2 is shown as 1/8 but plays as 1/16. c''4*3/4 is shown as 1/4
but plays as 3/16.

Does the instrument really need to be so demonstratively announced between movements or pieces if they are all part of the same document? It is common for wind instrument players to have to switch instruments between parts. -- David Kastrup It might be somewhat common for wind musicians to switch instruments during the course of a multi-movement work, or even during a movement, but it is not common to notate which instrument to play (apart from the top of the page) UNTIL one has to change. I'm a horn player, so I'm not switching physical instruments except by my own choice (and I don't), but we frequently have different transpositions (which correspond to switching horns or crooks back in the old days) within a work, and I can assure you that the normal practice is to *assume* horn in F, until told otherwise. Clarinet players switch actual instruments more than anyone I'd say, and I don't play clarinet, so I can't speak to that, but I have a feeling that they likewise assume B-flat until they are told something else.

Still, it's possible that in some countries the work itself might be out of copyright. Several users/contributers, including Janek, showed some interest in a MuseScore-LilyPond synergy. BTW I have read that there is a project of Smart coupling between Audiveris (open-source Optical Music Recognition) and MuseScore. http://fosdem.org/2012/schedule/event/audiveris A kind of synergy (in both directions) between the file format of musescore and .ly would also allow a conversion musicxml - musescore - .ly . I feel motivated to write down my thoughts on this topic :) cheers, Janek ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

The funds would be split between typesetter and programmer who implements necessary features. I could do the typesetting part. And if you add a musician that would do a recording of the piece and release it for free (as in free software, not only free beer) you would obtain something like the Open Goldberg Variations project. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/293573191/open-goldberg-variations-setting-bach-free There it's MuseScore that is used as typesetting software. 8O $23 000... Unbelievable!! So simple and so effective. Heck, let's do it! Do you know of any famous pieces of music without freely accessible scores?

Still, it's possible that in some countries the work itself might be out of copyright. The minimum required by the Berne convention is 50 years beyond the authors death before a work becomes public domain. Here in Australia, as in the US and EU, it's 70 years. So if Barber died in 1981, his works won't become public domain until 2051. And depending on the country, the publication from which you were working would also have had to be published before 1981.

regarding titling-init.ly I think it's not a bug but intended behaviour.
Of course scoreTitleMarkup can be redefined:
\version 2.14.2
myScoreTitle = \markup {
\override #'(baseline-skip . 3.5)
\column {
\fill-line { \fromproperty #'header:dedication }
\override #'(baseline-skip . 3.5)
\column {
\huge \larger \bold
\fill-line {
\larger \fromproperty #'header:title
}
\fill-line {
\large \smaller \bold
\larger \fromproperty #'header:subtitle
}
\fill-line {
\smaller \bold
\fromproperty #'header:subsubtitle
}
\fill-line {
\fromproperty #'header:poet
% { \large \bold \fromproperty #'header:instrument }
\null %\fromproperty #'header:composer
}
\fill-line {
\fromproperty #'header:meter
\fromproperty #'header:arranger
}
\fill-line {
\fromproperty #'header:piece
\fromproperty #'header:opus
}
}
}
}
music = \relative c' {
\repeat unfold 10 { c1 \break }
\pageBreak
\repeat unfold 10 { c1 \break }
\bar |.
}
\paper {
ragged-right = ##f
ragged-last-bottom = ##f
scoreTitleMarkup = \myScoreTitle
}
\book {
\header {
title = Das Wohltemperierte Clavier
composer = J.S. Bach
instrument = Superius
}
% quick and dirty hack
\markup \vspace #3
\score {
\new Staff \music
\header {
title = FUGA I
piece = a 4
}
}
\pageBreak
\score {
\new Staff \music
\header {

Stem separating dot from notehead
With overlapping parts, Lilypond defaults to separating a dot from its
notehead by placing the overlapping stem in between. According to Gould
(p.57) this is incorrect. The overlapped stem should be placed after the
dot.
\version 2.15.25
\relative c' {
{ c2 s c'4. } \\ { g2. s4 c, } \\ { s1 g'4 }
}
