Hi,
I'm encountering triple slurs like in the attached examples. Discussion
came to the conclusion that I should not "modernize" the notation using
only one slur but regard it as an expressive means.
I'm somewhat at a loss at how to proceed best with that as LilyPond only
provides "double" slurs (and I must admit that often they don't really
look good). In order to create such slurred chords (I don't think there
will be any cases of more than three notes, but in theory it should not
be limited) I could fake the chord with polyphony, but that doesn't work
nicely. "document.png" shows that the middle slur doesn't know about the
lower voice and should be laid out quite differently, similar to a ties
within a chord.
{
\key c \minor
<<
{
\voiceOne
as'4 ( g'8 )
}
\new Voice {
\stemUp
\omit Flag
d'4 _( es'8 )
}
\new Voice {
\stemUp
\omit Flag
b4 _( c'8 )
}
>>
}
Is there any reasonable approach I could take here without creating fake
polyphony and then formatting all slurs manually? It's not so much the
work I'm fearing (so far I only see 5-8 instances of the problem) but
rather the "uncleanliness" of the solution outlined above.
Any ideas?
(And particularly ideas that also work with LilyPond 2.18?)
Thank you
Urs
