I ask because the instructions there say to create LilyPond.engine (thus saying it needs a .engine extension IMO) A window saying successful installation (which included a scale program) came onto my desktop. It said I should copy this window and compile it. I was unable to copy it (by selecting it and pressing apple key c, which beeped) and so could not compile it. Anyway, I went into TexShop and typed in the \header{ } etc. (with a few initial comments) and changed the file extension to .ly but it failed to compile in lilypond (from the typesetting button) and so there is no pdf file. Should I have surrounded it with latex commands (\documentclass etc.)?? No. LaTeX is *not* involved in the creation of lilypond files (although LilyPond files can be embedded in LaTeX files with lilypond-book). Here is the file (which I called scale.ly) that I tried to compile: %{ Welcome to Lilypond %} \header{ title=A scale in Lilypond} \relative{c d e f g h a b c} \version 2.12.2 This file should produce output. It's probably not a LilyPond problem, but rather some challenge in your TexShop setup. try issuing the following commands from a terminal which lilypond (see if lilypond is visible to the shell) if lilypond is visible to the shell, then do lilypond scale.ly If this creates scale.pdf, then lilypond is successfully installed, and the remaining issues are integration with TexShop.

fret diagrams
Hi all, I'm desperately trying to typeset a simple C major fret diagram (guitar: first position). Here's my minimal example: \version 2.12.2 \include predefined-guitar-fretboards.ly mychords = \chordmode { c } { \context ChordNames { \mychords } \context FretBoards { \mychords } } The resulting diagram shows a c major chord in fifth position instead of first position (of the guitar). It probably doesn't work because I can't find the file »predefined-guitar-fretboards.ly« neither on my computer nor on the web. It's the same result with or without the \include-command. Where do I get this file from? If I have to create it myself: what is it supposed to look like? I didn't find any hints in the docs. Thank you for your help!

guitar guide-mark
When writing the fingering for guitar, there is a notation used to indicate a guide finger in left-hand shifting. The fingering mark looks like -3, but the - is rotated up about 30 degrees, which means to silently slide the 3rd finger from its previous position to this marked note on the same string. (Just in case someone doesn't know. ;-) So I want to write something like: c-{-3} or c--3 The first doesn't work and the latter puts the -3 below the note. Is there a mechanism to accomplish this?

Avoid indenting the first bar
Hello, I'm using Lilypond to add a hymn to a LaTeX document. I'm very impressed! A couple of questions: - how can I avoid indenting the first line of music? - what does the symbol in quotation marks mean mean (visualise it rotated clockwise by about 30 degrees) :||:?

Re: Avoid indenting the first bar
- what does the symbol in quotation marks mean mean (visualise it rotated clockwise by about 30 degrees) :||:? It could be a kind of simile mark, which would make sense because it marks a repetition of the words and a near repetition of the music. However, the only simile marks I can find live inside the stave, not above it as this one does. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Lilypond and Jazz chords
Hi: I did, as I mentioned earlier, visit my local music store and looked at their selection of fake books. I found what was the first legally published one in its new format. I was dissa pointed. Although it was as nicely typeset as the New Rea Book from Shur Music, there was no explanation of what their chords meant. There was simply an index of tunes along with composition and copyright credits. The notes themselves looked as if they had been typset as any music book wouldl have been. The chord indications, howver, looked as if they had been manually entered. So I could see where any standard way of entering chord names slightly changed from time to timne and from context to context. I am impressed with The New Reall Book series from Sher because of the way it is documented and the way they have gone about making sure each tune is following a real standard way of playin the changes. I own some of the recordings they have consulted so I have checked against their source. They've had to make some decisions of their own on a standard way of notating this since they actually send this to print. LIlypond doesn't have to make those choices, merely enable us to express the notes the way we or the composer/arranger intended. The notation that I was mainly concerned with was how to enter a bass note with the chord indication. I must say, I was shocked. I was both right and wrong in my assertions that the bass note was indicated under the chord name. The bass note was under the chord name, but with a slash not a straight line as I had stated. So, you can see how I was right and wrong. The slash with the chord name under the chord as they indicate in that publication would conform to what I have known to be correct in the past. I think now, that the chord along with the intended bass note belong together as an element or object in themselves. Alterations of the chord are a second element or object beside the chord name. These do not happen frequently, but when they do, they are important. Mostly they indicate an inversion of the chord named. These seem to occur most frequently at cadence points. An example occurs in the last bars of All the Things You Are where there is a progression with a step-wise bass pattern moving from a firIst inversion of the named chord and ending on the root position. In some cases there are going to be chord indications on each beat. Collisions willl be inevitable. It seems the slash with the bass note close under the chord name made this easier to read. I gather the slash would have naturally happend when copyists wrote these charts out by hand. Mostly being right handed the slant would naturally occur. What I saw in that publiation was for the most part clear and readable. I won't argue for or against any one way at this point, just for clarity and compactness. When I get a chance, I will call my Jazz musician friends and see how they expect to see it written. We have a major jazz festival in progress here so everyone is seriously busy. (There was a very good trumpet player int he store trying out instruments and having a long discussion with the sales person about lacquer and how thick it is and what it does to the sound!--- I know, seriously off topic). Lilypond should not seek to make a new method of entering this type of notation, it shoud simply enable copyists to make their music look the way they or the composer intended and to do it in a way that makes it easy for performing musicians to read. Am I makeing sense here? cheers, davidf -- David Fedoruk B.Mus.

Ummm, I'll look on the web to see if I can fine something. However, what I'm reading from is the Guitar Repertoire and Studies/Etudies books from the RCM http://www.rcmusic.ca. The left-hand shifting notation is used throughout all of the study books from grade 1 to grade 10. Any guitar player in Canada that goes through the RCM has been brought up with this notation.

I found what was the first legally published one in its new format. I was dissa pointed. That's not very specific. By chance were you looking at the Hal Leonard versions of the Real Books (6th Edition, Book II 2nd edition, Book III)? The original Real Books were hand written by an unidentified person allegedly affiliated with the Berklee school of music in Boston; the most commonly suggested person was a well-known professional jazz bassist who wrote the chords out as he and his colleagues preferred. For most jazz musicians, the original Real Books are the de facto standard (although they are not completely internally consistent). The original books contained a number of errors and a number of performance-specific transcriptions of songs. Even very famous songs in the Real Book like Four contain errors (which have become canonized by being played that way for over 30 years). The Hal Leonard Real Books are more accurate- or less performance-specific than the original Real Books. I am impressed with The New Reall Book series from Sher because of the way it is documented and the way they have gone about making sure each tune is following a real standard way of playin the changes. FWIW the original Real Books had a page of common chord voicings in note form for reference. But jazz musicians know what a Ebmin7b5 or Ebø means, for example, and there is no need to provide documentation of this. Students may need this, but they should get it elsewhere than from a book of tunes. Mark Levine's textbook on jazz harmony is a great resource and one every jazz student should work through. Fake books are not textbooks, they are intended for bandstand use by professionals. FWIW the Sher books are IMHO the best and most accurate of the various fake books. They should be the standard and not the Real Books. Sher made a point of checking the chords for accuracy far above and beyond the original Real Books (for example, compare Here's That Rainy Day, in which the original Real Book chords bear little resemblance to the proper chords of the song). However, the original Real Book (vol. 1) is simply The Book as in is that tune in the book? Bandleaders will frequently call songs by page number rather than title (because the Real Book is rather, umm, flexible as to its interpretation of alphabetization). The notation that I was mainly concerned with was how to enter a bass note with the chord indication. I must say, I was shocked. I was both right and wrong in my assertions that the bass note was indicated under the chord name. The bass note was under the chord name, but with a slash not a straight line as I had stated. So, you can see how I was right and wrong. The slash with the chord name under the chord as they indicate in that publication would conform to what I have known to be correct in the past. Normally the form for displaying a chord with a specific bass note is a diagonal slash: Gmaj7/A for example. Polychords (two triads stacked) are sometimes written as two chordnames arranged vertically with a short horizontal line separating them, but you'll find none of those in the Real Books IIRC: Ebmin __ Fmin I think now, that the chord along with the intended bass note belong together as an element or object in themselves. Alterations of the chord are a second element or object beside the chord name. These do not happen frequently, but when they do, they are important. Mostly they indicate an inversion of the chord named. These seem to occur most frequently at cadence points. An example occurs in the last bars of All the Things You Are where there is a progression with a step-wise bass pattern moving from a first inversion of the named chord and ending on the root position. In some cases there are going to be chord indications on each beat. Collisions willl be inevitable. It seems the slash with the bass note close under the chord name made this easier to read. Slash chords are usually written to specify a voicing to a keyboardist or guitarist, often to maintain a specific movement in the bass under the harmony: | Dmin7 Dmin7/C | Bb7 A7 | Dmaj7| for example. It's a simple way to write out the motion and is instantly readable. I gather the slash would have naturally happend when copyists wrote these charts out by hand. Mostly being right handed the slant would naturally occur. What I saw in that publiation was for the most part clear and readable. Right, it's intended to be instantly readable by a musician playing the song for the first time on the bandstand. I won't argue for or against any one way at this point, just for clarity and compactness. Those are the key things.

different lyrics with different alternatives
Hello, I seldom deal with songs, and am hard to search the mailinglist (NR. leaves this section empty!). So maybe this problem has been discussed before. I'm writing a song with two verses most of the time. In the melody-only version (I'll give it to my teacher), the melody is repeated with alternatives, the second of which is different, then to the end. Here's an example shows what I'm writing: \relative c' { \time 4/4 \repeat volta 2 { c4 d e f | g a b c | d c b a | } \alternative { { g1 } { g2. g4 } } a b c a | g f e d | c1 \bar |. } You can imagine what the two verses of lyrics look like: 1. Do re mi fa sol la si do re do si la sol. 2. Do re mi fa sol la si do re do si la sol, sol la si do la sol fa mi re do. So, how to correctly add these different two verses?
