Is it possible in LilyPond to generate an unslurred acciaccatura? Or, possibly equivalently, is it possible to generate a grace note with a slashed stem? (I'm engraving a piece from a Corelli manuscript which contains several of these.) ___ lilypon

Chords with smaller note heads

2011-08-21 Thread Alberto Simões
Hello I was looking into a way to write chords with some note heads smaller than others. I found a snippet with some lisp code (see bellow) that works great if only one note of the chord needs to be smaller. The odds is that I need some chords with two normal heads, and a small head, two sma

Hi all, I've got a choral piece in which there are: 1. large sections of "choral unison", where a single staff [SATB] suffices; 2. large sections of slightly more complex homophony, where two staves [SA + TB] suffice; and, 3. large sections of very complex homophony or polyphony, where f

I guess that might be the only way. The other suggestion doesn't quite work either. The way I have it entered still plays the chord and also the PDF is not right. The clef usually isn't printed, but when I surround the volume setting with curly brackets, it's printed. Am I placing the Volume set

(using 2.14 or 2.15.8 on OSX Intel) We’re in the process of re-inventing ConTeXt’s LilyPond support (similar to lilypond-book, but simpler and with ConTeXt instead of LaTeX). We try to solve page breaking of bigger scores. If a score begins mid-page, e.g. below a title, we would like to tel
