The only Ferneyhough-score I've at home prints the dynamics always
below the
system.
There are Ferneyhough scores with dynamics above the staff -- some of the piano works (e.g. Lemma-Icon-Epigram), and some of the vocal works. See e.g. the second movement of his 4th String Quartet which has a part for soprano: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVaDOz7bWU0 In this you see flared hairpins above the staff, and also dynamic brackets above the staff (e.g. at about 1:33 where there's a great long ffff bracket above the soprano part). The more general remark is that even if Ferneyhough did only place his dynamic markings below the staff, you couldn't assume that would remain true of all composers wanting to use Ferneyhough-like dynamic indicators in their scores :-) Final remark: while it's nice to see Ferneyhough getting namechecked might it be worth naming this alteration as flared-hairpin rather than ferneyhough-hairpin? https://codereview.appspot.com/7615043/ _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
