Rounds/catches with LilyPond
Hello lilypond-users. I'd like to engrave rounds with LilyPond 2.13 in a part-parallel format similar to this: http://www.archive.org/stream/nationalsongbook00stan#page/n255/mode/2up Although this looks simple compared to a lot of the crazy stuff in the snippet repository, there is a problem that I don't know how to solve: sometimes ties, slurs, or word hyphens/extenders have to stretch from the end of one staff to the beginning of the next, as though the staves were sequential instead of parallel. (See She Weepeth Sore, above, for an example). Logically they are sequential, of course, but I have to tell LilyPond they're parallel to make the notes line up. Is there any way to solve this? I don't want to turn on strict note spacing since it would uglify the score. The best idea I've had is to render three consecutive copies of the piece (with the parts rotating) and then somehow drop the first and third copies late in the rendering process. But that would introduce a bunch of gunk into the source file that's unrelated to the logical structure of the piece, it would generate spurious warnings for ties and dashes at the end of the third copy, LilyPond wouldn't know that the last system is really the last so ragged-last options probably wouldn't work, etc. Is there a more elegant solution?

We are exposed to more good and bad stuff than ever before. Hmmm, I'm not sure. The point you make about distribution may be the more significant. You might find there are petabyte disks in your watch with the whole of human culture on them, or else your phone will be quantum-entangled with the whole of the web giving instant access to absolutely everything :) The real problem will be categorising it. Two ways: what do people who listen to the stuff I like also listen to; and (this is another reason why work like Graham's is important) What is there that is played in the same manner as the the stuff I like. The second, I believe, is beyond the state of the art, because we don't know what in the same manner means. On Friday 18 Mar 2011 11:15:02 Kieren MacMillan wrote: Graham, ... I *do* think so -- and recent studies on youth support my belief with evidence. On the music side, consider the fact that recent studies have shown a majority of young people prefer the sound of compressed audio (e.g., low- to medium-bitrate MP3s) to uncompressed audio. [Pause here to fully appreciate the horror of that statement.] Independent of the content of the music itself -- the debate about which is far more subjective -- many listeners can no longer appreciate what music is physically supposed to sound like. Let's not confuse music with audio or sound. Everybody's hijacking the word Music these days. Music Industry (record industry), Music player (audio player). Music is a process and we make music. How do we make it? Let's experiment... reaches for source code A lower barrier of entry by definition allows people to get into the field with less experience, less training, less discipline, less persistence, and so on. Are there some benefits to this? Sure. Does it increase the amount of crap we have to wade through. Absolutely. I have yet to see any field -- athletics, art, construction, law, comedy, whatever -- where a lower barrier of entry doesn't increase the amount of crap. And, unfortunately, I also see in the audience for that field a concomitant decrease in discriminatory powers. True, I'm sure, but more disturbing is that hardly anybody (in the UK at least) benefits from a general musical education in the state sector. You have to buy your lessons privately pretty much everywhere. What goes on in schools is music appreciation or, worse, free improvisation (except that it's not, except in the literal sense). Lowering the barrier to making music might be a good thing. It's very different from lowering the barrier to people imposing their compositions on you in the local lift/supermarket/train etc etc. Perhaps exposing people to the process of making music might be a good defence against waning discrimination?

I make it just to start learning how to use Blender. but if you want it, I can sent it to you. Obviously absolutely for free :) Wow, that would be awesome! Are you willing to officially place it under GPLv3? It would be totally fantastic to render movies with something more than 4 cylinders + a rectangular prism + 1 moving cylinder. (that's my level of Blender skill :) Do you have a bow model as well? The paper deadline was extended by one week (it was going to be today), so I now have a chance to re-render the movies and include a nice-looking screenshot (with credit to your work on the model, of course!).

Re: Notes lining up, and warnings
Father == Father Gordon Gilbert fatherg...@gmail.com writes: Father Can someone help me here? On this Anglican chant , in the Father tenth measure (end of the first section of verse two) the Father melody notes are 1/2 notes and the harmony notes are whole Father notes, yet in my pdf viewer, they are not lined up as I would Father like them. I've tried in LilyPondTool to shift them a bit, Father but it doesn't seem to be working for some reason. (It Father introduces a horiz. shift expression into the line, but it Father seems to have no effect.) The problem is that the tenor and bass parts cross over here. Lilypond offsets one of them to show this. If you make the bass line stay below the tenor line all the way then the line-up is perfect. I found some of the formatting a bit strange --- but here's hwhat I adjusted to get a result. you may want to change it! \header { filename = Psalm121.ly enteredby = Gordon Gilbert composer = Anglican Chant date=2011 title = I Will Lift Up Mine Eyes subtitle = Psalm 121 arranger = Gordon Gilbert mutopiacomposer = \composer maintainer = Gordon Gilbert maintainerEmail = g...@angelsroost.ca lastupdated = 2011 * March * 22 } \version 2.13.29 \paper{ % #(set-paper-size letter) } global= { \time 4/4 \key d \major \override Staff.TimeSignature #'transparent = ##t \skip 1*3 \bar || \skip 1*4 \bar || \skip 1*3 \bar || \skip 1*4 \bar || } sop = \relative c' { fis1 a2 b d1 fis,1 a2 b a a a1 a1 b2 d2 cis( b) fis1 a2 b a e fis1 } alto = \relative c' { d1 e2 fis g1 d1 e2 d e e fis1 d1 fis2 fis e1 d1 cis2 d e cis d1 } tenor = \relative c' { a1 a2 b b1 b1 cis2 b d cis a1 a1 b2 b b1 b,1 a'2 b a a a1 } bass = \relative c' { d,1 cis2 b g1 b1 a2 g a2 a d1 d1 fis2 fis b,1 b1 a2 g a a d d,1 } text = { } \score { \context ChoirStaff \context Staff =upper { \clef G \global \context Voice = sop {\voiceOne \sop} \context Voice = alto {\voiceTwo \alto } } \context Staff = lower { \clef F \global \context Voice = tenor {\voiceOne \tenor} \context Voice = bass {\voiceTwo \bass} } \layout{ indent = 0.0\pt } \midi { \context { \Score tempoWholesPerMinute = #(ly:make-moment 120 4) } } } \markup{ \wordwrap-string # 1.
