I am a little confused as to my eye-sight - even after I checked that the glyph is completely symmetric, I "feel" that the \haydnturn's right part is "steeper". At one point I thought it might be an optical illusion triggered by the note head below, but that's not the case (as can be seen by deleting that note head). So it's probably best to forget my remark after all. Anyway, this was not influenced by your change of thickness, so you might just as well follow your judgement about what look of the symbol matches the Feta 'flavour'. https://codereview.appspot.com/340660043/ ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel

To me it looks as if it weighs slightly more on the left, but maybe I'm wrong? (And I'm also not sure if this would be a problem if I were right.) The symbol is 100% symmetrical as I tested with the following code: \markup \fill-line { \fontsize #20 \overlay { \rotate #180 \with-color #red \musicglyph "scripts.haydnturn" \musicglyph "scripts.haydnturn" } } But maybe it’s not well-balanced nethertheless? (The Henle score that prompted me to ask in the first place - Haydn Symphony Nr. 13 in Haydn, Werke, Reihe I, Band 3, ed. Braun/Gerlach - has a less curly version of the \haydnturn, but I like your design better.) Yes, I don’t like the Henle (1972) version as well. I copied the fact that it’s less bold than the turn and mordent but I made it a little but more curly and centered the stem vertically (Henle makes the upper half of the stem longer than the lower). As for the \slashturn: I think the lenght of the stem is okay. But I started to wonder if the \slashturn should really be as "thick" at its waist as the usual \turn. Maybe there is a slight disbalance between the two parts (turn vs. slash). You’re right. \turn and \reverseturn are 10% thicker at the very center than at the “outer” thick parts. Making the \slashturn 4% thinner instead looks good to me. Maybe that’s also the reason for imbalance in the \haydnturn. Same thickness instead of 10% thicker might look better. I’ll make a patch set for slimmer center parts and attach the resulting PDF to the sourceforge issue. https://codereview.appspot.com/340660043/ ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel

Maybe something like \override Script.haydnturn-style = #'turn % default #'wiggle ? It sounds like you're saying we don't know if they are semantically distinct, therefore we should implement commands as if they are. I have no objection to that; I just want to understand the intent and encourage an implementation that suits it. We don’t exactly know if \slashturn and \turn are semantically distinct either … As stated in my last post above it looks like many of these prall/mordent/turn/XXXturn symbols can replace each other in different editions. https://codereview.appspot.com/340660043/ ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel

I don’t know; I’m not even sure whether \haydnturn should be played as \mordent or as \turn. The 1972 Henle edition of the piano sonatas writes “The sign [\haydnturn] usually signifies [d32 c b c4]. In an appropriate musical context, however, it can be performed as a mordent [c16 b c4]”. After looking through different editions of some piano sonatas on IMSLP I’ve got the impression that nobody knows exactly. I’ve seen \trill and \prall in the same place, \prall and \mordent, \mordent and \haydnturn, \mordent and \turn, \prall and \reverseturn, \turn and \reverseturn, … But no \slashturn. I added the latter because it’s a form seen in SMuFL and here: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Requesting-an-addition-tp139819p139974.html https://codereview.appspot.com/340660043/ ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
