I think it would be far better to use cadenza, anyway, how about: \version "2.19.45" \score { \new Staff { \time 4/4 \clef bass \repeat unfold 5 { c4 d e f | g a b c' } \newSpacingSection \once \omit Staff.TimeSignature \override Score.SpacingSpanner.spacing-increment = #0 \time 75/4 \tweak usable-duration-logs #'(0) R1*75/4*1 ^\fermataMarkup _\markup { "Cadenza" } \once \omit Staff.TimeSignature \newSpacingSection \revert Score.SpacingSpanner.spacing-increment \time 4/4 \repeat unfold 5 { c4 d e f | g a b c' } } } Cheers, Harm That worked like a charm! I agree that using \cadenzaOn and Off would be the best approach, so I’ve attached a new version that does just that. What I wind up with is a mess (a MMR with a bar of notes typeset on top of it). What am I doing wrong? --Steven
