Re: Unknown expression mark
Dear Paul, Assuming that the symbol is a marcato-staccato, one could use some scheme code a bit like the following which is pasted together from the short fermata and staccato definitions, so that the layout and midi outputs are properly handled. -William \version "2.24.0" staccatostrongaccent = #(make-articulation 'shortfermata 'midi-length (lambda (len context) (moment-min (ly:moment-mul len (ly:make-moment 1/3)) (seconds->moment 1/3 context))) ; slightly shorter than staccato 'midi-extra-velocity 40 ; marcato midi-extra-velocity ) \score { \relative g' { g8^\staccatostrongaccent g8_\staccatostrongaccent } \layout {} \midi {} } On 1/15/23 05:37, Paul Hodges wrote: This is simply a combination of marcato (aka "strong accent") and staccato.

I haven't tried, but I imagine that a little tweaking of vertical positions of the two symbols could get them to overlap like this.

Re: Unknown expression mark
It looks to me like a short fermata: https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.22/Documentation/f5/lily-0fe2acbd.png which you may call in lilypond via "\shortfermata" However, it might also be a staccato and marcato, with more context (the rest of the score) the answer might be more clear. -William On 1/14/23 12:58, Alberto Simões wrote: Hello, Friends Anyone knows: - what is this expression mark (in terms of the player) - how to mimic this in Lilypond?

See the list of articulations, as mentioned in NR 1.3.1 Expressive marks attached to notes. https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.24/Documentation/notation/list-of-articulations Cheers, Xavier -- Xavier Scheuer
