The usual way to recognize music types is by music-is-of-type? and the
name is
not generally used except for subclassing. Music would likely not be interesting though.
Of course "general-music" could be used to group music objects, too. However, from what I can gather, it is a remnant of times past when engravers accepted Music objects by way of "general music" (instead of stream events) and figured out what specific kind they were there. https://codereview.appspot.com/222090043/ _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
