We could introduce a special alignment-class for clef changes, but I'm not sure what the proper notation of a clef change at the beginning of the line is ; I believe that 2 clefs at the same musical point would only be necessary at the start of a piece, right? Not necessarily! I could imagine pieces where you want to indicate a major clef change after a double bar line, say, but where the part still begins with a rest and some cue notes from another part in another clef, similarly to the example sent earlier in this thread. /Mats ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Right. I've attached a scan of the example I'm working from. I would suggest a new command called \clefChange that would be like \clef, but would never override the starting clef at the beginning of the piece. If \clefChange is the first clef command found, then the implicit treble clef should be visible. Also, how can I get the curly brace visible to the left of the staves in this example?
