Hello to all

Since some days I got immersed into Lilypond learning and the addtional
usage of Frescobaldi then was a game changer. I see the dedication to
quality in both products.

For my own piano practice, I am working on the Fugue IX from the
Well-Tempered Clavier Book 1 from S.B. Bach. The work has three voices. To
differentiate the voices I used a template for three voices and was able to
come up with a decent version. Next, I also want to add some harmonic
function to also visually better understand how the work is built (as a
Fugue of course).

Now, I call these "My piano practice sheets" as they are for practice only.
My teacher asked me to practice each voice separately first and only then
start combining them.

Since here the middle or "mezzio" voice is played sometimes with the
fingers of the left and sometimes with the fingers of the right hand, I
decided to consistently indicate this fingering "up" for the left hand, and
"down" for the right and use it per note such as "a16_4" for a down
fingering or "a16^1" for an up-fingering.

I am not sure that this is the right way to do. Of course, there can be
indicators such as "r.h" and "l.h.", but there would be too many and it is
rather distracting to the eye. And it als forces me to have all fingering
either up and down, but not in inside the lines.

Currently, I color the fingingerings of the voicing line. Maybe left or
right hand could have a color.

But maybe somone has a better idea...?

Thanks to all and have a nice weekend
