Well, a \break will only work where there is a bar line, so the combination \bar \break should work. See also http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2005-08/msg00021.html for an alternative solution. /Mats [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, try the \break command I guess it'll

Sorry, I don't understand the question. As you say yourself, you just specify the clef using \clef tenor or \clef bass or whatever clef you want. You will get exactly the same pitches, printed according to the clef. On the other hand, of you want to transpose a part by an octave, for example,

As long as the music is notated in the pitch it shold sound, just replace tenor by bass. However, my guess is that your real question is about transposing instruments, where the notation tells what to play, not what it should sound like. In that case, read the section on Transpose in the manual

As long as you can read tenor clef and input the music with the correct pitches, then it's just to replace \clef tenor with \clef bass, as we have already answered several times. For example, the following code prints the same music notated both with tenor clef and bass clef: \version 2.8.0

Hi, Mats and the others are right. I think you are confusing transposition and the clef that is being used. The clef determines only which lines and spaces the notes will appear on. Which ever clef you use, the notes remain the same. Changing the clef does not change the notes, just the lines and
