I found by experimenting with 2.19.55 that chords can be used in such tremolos.


Of course they can!


The doc doesn’t explicitly exclude unequal durations, such as:

\repeat tremolo 8 { c16 d8 }

Is that meaningful from a musical point of view? Should the doc mention that 
case, either positively or negatively?


No, it’s not meaningful (or rather, there’s no notation for that). I 
don’t think the docs should mention it; you might be the first one to 
come up with the idea… :-)


Best, Simon

Repeat tremolo question

2017-05-03 Thread Menu Jacques
Hello folks,

The LPNR gives as example:
 
\relative c'' {
   \repeat tremolo 8 { c16 d }
   \repeat tremolo 6 { c16 d }
   \repeat tremolo 2 { c16 d }
}

I found by experimenting with 2.19.55 that chords can be used in such tremolos.

The doc doesn’t explicitly exclude unequal durations, such as:

   \repeat tremolo 8 { c16 d8 }

Is that meaningful from a musical point of view? Should the doc mention that 
case, either positively or negatively?

Thanks for your help!

JM
