I don't think this is a bug. \relative applies to the following music expression. If there are brackets {} missing, this expression only consists of the \tempo command and the rest in {} is just the next music expression. For Peter, or in general, I would suggest to put everything into the brackets following \relative: \relative c'' { \clef "treble" \key f \minor \time 4/4 \tempo "Allegretto con moto" R1 | af4(\mp bf c) f | ef8( df8) c4 df8( c) bf4 | c2 r2 | R1 | af4( bf c)\< f \!| c8( bf) af4 g8( f) d4\> | f2\! r2 | } Cheers, Joram _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
