 Yes :-) Since this is completely unexpected (and I don't know any
 other work of Mozart with a similar situation), people are stumbling
 there.

 Here http://cosinasdeleon.blogspot.com/2009/07/hinmo-leon.html are
 two different instances of 'ioa' but they come from two words, not
 three.  First -- gio~a , then Dio~a.

 No lyric ties either...

So your view is that lyric ties are not used in the real world?  I
still feel them as a pedagogy resource for young musicians or
something.  Or maybe old scores did not use them and they are now more
often used. I don't know.

The first time I've seen tied syllables was in English engravings, but
I'm unable to mention where.

I forgot these cases (o~è~in; a~è~in; o~è~an...).  They are often elided
(quest'in instead of questa~è~in) by editors and composers.

Several famous editors use them, with no particular rule.
Let's take the example of Ricordi Milano.

In this score, published around 1982, there's no ties (we can see a na
è in in the beginning):
http://petrucci.mus.auth.gr/imglnks/usimg/2/20/IMSLP81325-PMLP165637-la_danza.pdf

In this one, published around 1925, we can find ties (and it's not a
beginner score!):
http://216.129.110.22/files/imglnks/usimg/2/29/IMSLP80146-PMLP162554-Vivaldi_-_Agitata_da_due_venti__Griselda_.pdf

In every recent score I have from them, they always use ties. Those
which were done using traditional engraving as those using Finale.

I will have to do a better patch...

No.  I simply can't discuss how lyric ties should look like since I
haven't seen real-world examples in the scores I've used up to now.
It seems that German engraving for classical music can live without
it.

2011/8/9  lemniskata.bernoull...@gmail.com:
 I'd make the tie slightly shorter.  I find it awkward that two adjacent
 ties collide so easily, for example here
 {
  \time 3/4
  \relative c' { c2 e4 g2 e4 }
  \addlyrics { gran- de_a- mi- go }
  \addlyrics { pu- ro y ho- nes- to }
  \addlyrics { pu- ro~y~ho- nes- to }
 }
 (example from documentation), or in the example you attached on the
 tracker issue page.

I have never liked this example in the documentation.

Firstly, it seems to mix Portuguese and Spanish.

Secondly, it does not follow the policy for syllable separator, which
is '[space]--[space]', not '-[space]'.

Finally, 2nd and 3rd stanzas look _very_ improbable to me in that it
has three syllables on a single note, which requires two lyric ties.
o~y is a synalepha and it could be a in-word diphthong, y~ho is
another synalepha, but o~y~ho is not a triphthong and can not be a
three-vowel synalepha.

If nobody finds a real example in literature, I suggest to remove the
problematic case, it is too artificial.

I can't find it now, but I definitely remember having seen three syllables in 
a soprano aria (I think it was Italian). It was something like -- to e in.

Unfortunately, I really can't find it any more. I thought it was in Rossini's 
Stabat Mater, but that was wrong.

Adds a glyph for tied lyrics. (issue4808074)

2011-08-06 Thread bordage . bertrand

Reviewers: ,

Message:
Better handling of lyric ties:
* The space between two tied words is no more fixed. Its value is
word-space. The default space is therefore decreased.
* New glyph, so that we won't need an external font.
* Increased vertical space between words and tie. It is therefore now
possible to have commas in tied lyrics without any collision (example:
verte,~et).

How to build it:
rm mf/out/feta*
make

Bertrand
