Sorting out harmonic rhythm, embellishing tones, deciding on the current key, etc.?Now that would be a lifetime's labor :) The task is so complex with any but the simplest music, and there is so much room for alternate interpretation, that all that is feasible is a convenient way to format the symbols that the analyst requires. As an example of a simple formatter, see the code here: http://www.mail-archive.com/lilypond-user%40gnu.org/msg96575.html A more representative usage of the code at the link would be: %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% EXAMPLE %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% bassline = \relative c' { \clef bass \key g \major \time 3/4 g4 fis f e es es d2 dis4 e2. \bar "||" } analysis = \lyricmode { \set stanza = #"G: " % use spaces to adjust position of key indication \markup \rN { I } \markup \rN { V 6 5 } \markup \rN { vii o 4 3 / IV } \markup \rN { IV 6 } \markup \rN { ii h 4 3 } \markup \rN { Fr + 6 } \markup \rN { I 6 4 } \markup \rN { vii o 7 / vi } \markup \rN { vi } } \score { \new Staff << \new Voice = "bass" { \bassline } \new Lyrics \lyricsto "bass" { \analysis } >> \layout { \context { \Score \override SpacingSpanner #'shortest-duration-space = #6 } } } %%%%%%%%%% Hope this is helpful, David
