piano fingerings with parentheses
I am trying to offer alternate fingering in a piano piece. My goal
is to place the alternate fingerings (4) (2) in parentheses and
beneath the regular fingerings 5 3.
Here's what I've tried:
a_5_4 e_3_2 c e |% 5 and 3 are above 4 and 2
\parenthesize_4a_5 \parenthesize_2e_3 c e | %
4 and 2 are in parentheses, but above 5 and 3
a_5_"(4)" e_2_\markup\tiny{(1)} c e | %
Correct position and parentheses; poor appearance
A nice bonus would be if I could have the parentheses appear around
the pair
5 3
(4 2)

stem direction when crossing staves

I place my question below the example because the email client thinks I'm
top-posting.
Greetings,
I have a part which crosses between two staves. I would like the stems to go
down when on the upper staff and up when on the lower staff. I have succeeded in
the example below, but I would like not to have to type stem direction (or
\voiceOne) along with the "\change Staff" each time. Is that possible?

I've been playing horn for almost a half century.
Music before 20th century for horn was written without key signature.
Players of the
natural horn (no valves) played music transposed to the key of their
instruments without key
signature.
You should write the music a perfect fourth higher than it will sound and
omit the key
signature. You should include accidentals as they occur.
In your example, CornoOne looks correct to me. The harp and the Horns are
playing in unison(octaves) for the first 2 notes
Be content; it is your birthright.
