Hello, I recently started to typeset Shostakovich's first violin concerto and i entered the first 7 bars into lilypond, only to find that the notes have been spaced at some comically large space, rather than compressing into a readable size.
If the score was to continue at this rate then reading the score while listening to the piece would turn into a page-turning speed test! Is there anyway to tell lilypond to just take up less room? (see score and .ly attachments below) Thanks, Nick.
