Re: rolled chords in multivoice classical guitar score

The solution to this enabled me to solve a problem I had, of putting an arpeggio sign in front of a single (slanted-head) note. As an arpeggio requires two notes, I had to force the issue, which I did by: << { \hideNotes f,2.\arpeggio \unHideNotes } \\ { \improvisationOn d'2.\arpeggio } >>

Ok I've given this a tiny tweak that I think will work the way you want. I just removed the two separate voices I had used before in the score block for the melody and bass, and replaced those with a single voice called "music" that will hold all voices, instantiated on-the-fly with <<{}\\{}>>

Jonathan, First, thank you for your continued interest. Attached is my engraving of the 5th section of a "Variations and Theme" piece I have written - the theme comes last. The F# added to the final chord is my addition, and is there to remind listeners of the harmonic flavor of the variation

Hmm. These organizational things are a matter of preference, of course. Still, I don't see why you'd have to rewrite things so dramatically. I thought I saw in one of your posts here that you had all the notes in one variable. It seems like this \score block ought to work even when all the n

Sorry. I spoke too soon. This is no solution. It messes up the VISIBLE voicing in the score - the direction of stems. It also cannot be used to arpeggiate across chords where different voices have different durations - unless one breaks notes up into tied groups. This a bad solution. Sigh. I st

Adjunct to my previous post - I'll admit that my Ruby programming experience biases me in the direction of seeking simple, direct, comprehensible, heuristic solutions. I think I may have found one - Building on my notion of using this construct to manage polyphonically structured scores -

Jonathan, This looks interesting, and its structure is not hard to discern (for me), but it requires me to split my guitar scores into voices and write them separately from beginning to end. This is possible, but not exactly what one expects to do, except with true multi-voice scores (vocal,

Ok this is better. I put the \set Staff.connectArpeggios in the score block instead. This is more elegant: % This shows how to use arpeggios that cross % from one voice to another. \version "2.11.62" melody = \relative c'' { \voiceOne e4\arpeggio 2 } bass = \relative c' { \voiceTwo

Maybe. Probably. If I could get it to work. The problem is that it start a new staff. I need arpeggios across voices in arbitrary locations - of course. Here's the structure of my file: \header stuff staffClassicalGuitar = { my music, in 2 & 3 part voicing} \score { \new Staff { (staff de

BTW this works with single notes, too. I changed it as follows and the arpeggio still works fine: \new Staff \with { \consists "Span_arpeggio_engraver" } \relative c' { \set Staff.connectArpeggios = ##t << { e'4\arpeggio 2 } \\ { d,2\arpeggio 2 } >> } Jonathan Kulp wrote: Th
