Re: Spanning bar lines in mensural notation

2007-11-21 Thread erminia

Using StaffGroup was already a first step, thank you.

Now I am still worried about lyrics clashing with bar lines as in the
following example:

\version "2.11.32"

global = {
\set Score.skipBars = ##t
\key c\major
\time 2/2
\override NoteHead #'style = #'neomensural
\override Voice.Rest #'style = #'neomensural
\override Score.BarLine #'transparent = ##t
}

cantusNotes =
\relative c'' {
\set Staff.instrumentName = "Cantus"
\clef "petrucci-c1"
g1 fis2 g a4 e g1 fis2 g1
\once \override Staff.BarLine #'transparent = ##f
\bar "|"
e2 a1 gis2 a b c1 
\once \override Staff.BarLine #'transparent = ##f
\bar "|"
}

cantusLyrics = \lyricmode {
\override LyricText #'font-size = #-1
I Lift mine eyes to Si -- on Hill,
from whence I doe at -- tend,
}

altusNotes = 
\relative c' {
\set Staff.instrumentName = "Altus"
\clef "petrucci-c3"
d1 d2 d e2. d4 d2. c4 b1
\once \override Staff.BarLine #'transparent = ##f
\bar "|"
r2 e2 e e2. fis4 g2 g1
\once \override Staff.BarLine #'transparent = ##f
\bar "|"
}

altusLyrics = \lyricmode {
\override LyricText #'font-size = #-1
I Lift mine eyes to Si -- on Hill,
from whence I doe at -- tend,
}

tenorNotes = 
\relative c'{ 
\set Staff.instrumentName = "Tenor"
\clef "petrucci-c4"
g1 a2 g c b a a g1
\once \override Staff.BarLine #'transparent = ##f
\bar "|"
c1 c2 b c d e1
\once \override Staff.BarLine #'transparent = ##f
\bar "|"
}

tenorLyrics = \lyricmode {
\override LyricText #'font-size = #-1
I Lift mine eyes to Si -- on Hill,
from whence I doe at -- tend,
}

bassusNotes = 
\relative c {
\set Staff.instrumentName = "Bassus"
\clef "petrucci-f4"
g1 d'2 b a g d' d g,1
\once \override Staff.BarLine #'transparent = ##f
\bar "|"
a1 e'2 e a g c,1
\once \override Staff.BarLine #'transparent = ##f
\bar "|"
}


bassusLyrics = \lyricmode {
\override LyricText #'font-size = #-1
I Lift mine eyes to Si -- on Hill,
from whence I doe at -- tend,
}

\score {
\new StaffGroup = choirStaff<<
\new Voice = "cantusNotes" << \global \cantusNotes >>
\new Lyrics = "cantusLyrics" \lyricsto cantusNotes 
{\cantusLyrics}
\new Voice = "altusNotes" << \global \altusNotes >>
\new Lyrics = "altusLyrics" \lyricsto altusNotes {\altusLyrics}
\new Voice = "tenorNotes" << \global \tenorNotes >>
\new Lyrics = "tenorLyrics" \lyricsto tenorNotes {\tenorLyrics}
\new Voice = "bassusNotes" << \global \bassusNotes >>
\new Lyrics = "bassusLyrics" \lyricsto bassusNotes 
{\bassusLyrics}
>>

\layout {
\context { \Score \consists "Span_bar_engraver"}
}
}

The same problem arose when I substituted "StaffGroup" with "ChoirStaff",
and it is obviously even worse in pieces with Breve bars instead of Verse
bars. Where am I wrong?

Spanning bar lines in mensural notation

2007-11-19 Thread erminia

Dear all,

I ask for help with the following problem:

How can I set a mensural score (vocal music) with bar lines spanning all
staves?

And how, if successful, do I prevent the text syllables from clashing with
the bar lines?

Many thanks in advance,
erminia
