Hi Charlotte, You are missing a square bracket to end a beam in the sixth bar of your example. Instead of
d'16 | <f a c' e'>1 | you should have d'16] | <f a c' e'>1 | I don't know how you're generating that code (all of the stem up and stem down stuff is unnecessary), but if you read the output from LilyPond it usually points you in the right direction. For example, I loaded your code with Frescobaldi and when l ran LilyPond it highlighted where the problem was in the code. hth, Kevin On Sat, Feb 14, 2015 at 8:21 PM, Charlotte Godley < charlotte.god...@hotmail.co.uk> wrote: > Hi there, > > Relative newbie to lilypond.
