Is SMuFL's "cClefCombining" LilyPond's varC clef?

2015-06-01 Thread Urs Liska
Sorry for cross-posting, but I think it's possible to get answers from 
both sides:


When discussing LilyPond clefs that can't be represented in MusicXML the 
question arose whether
LilyPond's "varC" clef shape is equivalent to what is called 
cClefCombining in SMuFL:


http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/clef-styles
http://edirom.de/smufl-browser/index.html?glyphname=cClefCombining

As I have to admit I don't know where these clefs are used for I can't 
tell. Can anybody enlighten me?


TIA
Urs

The varC clef shape in Lilypond differs from the normal C clef only 
through its appearance. Their meanings are identical.

I don’t exactly get what ‘combining’ means here. Visually this is 
something like the varC clef in Lilypond without the two ‘bars’ at the 
left; perhaps these are to be added separately?

I suspect the "combining" refers to the adding of the elements of the 
older/French style C clef to the G clef to represent tenor clef.

This was just confirmed by Daniel Spreadbury, yes.

Where is this clef used? I assume it has been added to LilyPond for a 
specific purpose.

I remember that we had some old clef discussion about some mensural clef
provided by LilyPond and mimicking a manuscript several years ago.

It turned out that the clef in question was indeed two overlayed C
clefs, one for the soprano voice and one for alto (or mezzo?): both were
entered in the same staff but with different vertical offsets so that
either voice, even though combined into one staff, weas written in the
key the respective singers were accustomed to.

That's not as much a "combining" as a "combined" clef, however.

No idea whether this is related.
