> Page 160: nice global crescendo, voices, and cross-staff piano My vote is currently for one of these two. On page 160, bars 39 - 41 would be good. Remember that with the narrower widths, it's best to have fewer bars. I kind-of wish that page 160 has some percussion. I don't mind the lack of marimba, but many orchestral pieces have at least one 1-line staff. Do you feel like adding something? (maybe at the cresc going into 41 ?) It would also be nice to have the changing time signatures like you do in the Prologue, but that would require significantly more arranging / engraving. Any other thoughts on the orchestral example from other people? Cheers, - Graham PS since I can't let you ever think that I'm happy... why on earth didn't you mention this when Jonathan was asking for examples a few months ago?! That would have saved various people quite a bit of time and energy. Contributors sending scores to Jonathan and me, the two of us trying to find diplomatic ways of saying "that looks nice, but there's no wow"... for that matter, even just *me* saying to *Jonathan* "yeah, your full orchestral score looks nice, but there's no wow". _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
