First: it is impossible to guess what you want here since \tempo = "123" would not be a valid command, and neither would be \tempo = 123. Second: why do you have bpm defined inside of \header? Header variables are not visible in the score. I just tried bpm = 123 \relative c' { \tempo 4 = \bpm "%the header bpm variable c'4 } and found out that variables are not permitted in this place. Which is probably an oversight rather than anything intentional. Feel free to file a bug report. It might be quite simpler, however, just to write bpm = \tempo 4 = 123 \relative c' { \bpm c'4 } And can you _please_ _please_ _please_ stop appending the whole thing you are replying to at the bottom of your mails? -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
