I am seeing some behavior I don’t understand. I have ended the music for
“Silver Bells” into lilypond, and I am seeing a puzzling error.
The song is in 3/4 time, but the rest in measure 33 seems to betaking 4 beats -
I get a bar check failed and there are one two rests in measure 34, and an
extra measure is inserted at the end.
What am I doing wrong?
The offending r1 is on the 3rd line of the first branch of the alternative
below - and if I change that r1 to “r4 r4 r4”, or to “r2.”, the issue goes
away.
