I have a piece where I need a fairly long ottavation text that goes from
one line to the next (it says that the ottavation applies to the right hand
only). The problem is that there is only one measure on the second line
and the text doesn't fit when it's repeated. One solution is to set \break
so that the ottavation is all on one line but this sometimes produces
stretched or crowded measures. Is there another solution?
\version "2.19.20"
\language "english"
octaveUp = {
\set Staff.ottavation = #"8va pour la main droite seulement"
\once \override Staff.OttavaBracket.direction = #UP
\set Voice.middleCPosition = #(- 6 5) % c''
}
octaveOff = {
\unset Staff.ottavation
\unset Voice.middleCPosition
}
\relative c' {
<<
{
s1 | s1 | s1 | s1 |
\octaveUp
\repeat unfold 4 { e4 f g a }
\octaveOff
s1 | s1 | s1 | s1 | s1 | s1 | s1 | s1 |
}
\\
{
\repeat unfold 16 { c4 d e f }
}
>>
}
