Great! We're still working out some technical issues, but rest assured
that I'll let you know when it's ready.
I am really struggling to learn enough about Lilypond to create
a simple cello + piano accompaniment score. The resulting output would
be the cello part, and the piano part.
Hey, a fellow cellist!
Writing cello + piano is fairly easy. First, I heavily recommend that
you read the 2.8 docs; many of the issues you raise have been addressed
(or at least, I began to address them) in the 2.8 docs.
To make a cello+piano template, begin with appendix D.2.2 Piano and
melody with lyrics. Delete the "text = " stuff, the "\autoBeamOff", and
the "\new Lyrics..." stuff. Everything else should be fine!
I also heavily recommend 3.1 Extending the templates. If it isn't
clear, please suggest some clarifications for it!
I would like to see some suggestions on file naming conventions
and "Best practice" Lilypond coding. I often look at the mutopiaproject
for examples, but I get annoyed to find they are old versions and
require time to upgrade and fiddle around with.
4.1 Suggestions for writing LilyPond files
Cheers,
