I don’t recall that anybody so far has been able to explain how they know a piece is in 4/2 when it is denoted cut-C. Can you? I found a little support for the idea that double cut-C is being used as 2/1 in the hymnal I have. Consider songs 2 and 3 from this 1844 hymnal: http://books.google.ca/books?id=t341RA7NAcIC . In that book they are in 2/1. (Would you have called them 4/2 if not for that? I probably would have.) The hymnal I have contains those two songs with identical music, but denoted with double cut-C time; and there are others I recognize, but I haven’t checked them as closely. — Dan _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
