If you have thoughts on the best path towards making

I am glad to see this effort, thank you for doing it.
Within the past week, I used define-music-function in a fashion other
than cargo-cult for the first time.
It was in a SATB choral piece. There is temporary polyphony within a
single part some places. I started out writing it as chords, then saw
there was unison notes within the temporary polyphony. I want them to
show stems up and down indicating unison has not ended.
Therefore I went,
<https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.23/Documentation/notation/multiple-voices>
"
A temporary polyphonic passage can be created with the following construct:
<< { \voiceOne … }
\new Voice { \voiceTwo … }
>> \oneVoice
"
...but got tired of having all that code each time there was a unison
note among the temporary-polyphony chords.
Could a music function or something be shorthand for that? Let's see...
<https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.23/Documentation/notation/substitution-function-syntax>
That page is pretty ideal. Here's the general form, what it contains,
and how it can be used. I ended up with this:
%
\version "2.23.80"
uniTwo = #(define-music-function
(uniNote)
(ly:music?)
#{
<< { \voiceOne #uniNote }
\new Voice { \voiceTwo #uniNote }
>> \oneVoice
#})
{ c'4 \uniTwo e' g' }
%
I may end up replacing all the chords with the temporary-polyphony
construct. And I may get told my \uniTwo function is very far from best
practice. Regardless, Scheme code seems a bit more approachable now.

I also live in a music tradition with joined-notes hymnals. I use
\partcombine #'(2 . 9)
In your example, I think the doubleSlurs ARE generating, it's just
that they both go in the same direction and appear as one. Try using
the direction indicators ^ and _ to correct this:
soprano = \relative c' {
\global
f1 a1^( g2) g
}
alto = \relative c' {
\global
f1 f1_( e2) e

Date: Thu, 4 Feb 2021 15:48:17 + From: Pashkuli Keyboard To: Karlin High Hello, *Carl* Yes, I agree with your remarks regarding "spacing" of pitch, but let me point out that the standard notation also eliminates at least 42% of this by adding accidental symbols and 8va, 15ma amendments where needed. The purpose of PMN is to represent pitch by shape and melodic intervals by horizontal position (with some vertical renova changes). It's main purpose is to be concise and 1:1 representation of the 12 notes (your 1st remark) and clear symbolic view as much as possible (no extra lines, crossing, etc which clutter the view), regardless of any reference scale (your 2nd remark; the Natural major in "standard" notation). It is more like a "compression" format for music notation.

Just don't expect any improvements to Groups unless it's by accident. -- Karlin High Missouri, USA
