Hi rsfjr, LilyPond doesn't support vertical slurs. What you're looking for is \arpeggioParenthesis + \arpeggio: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/expressive-marks-as-lines#arpeggio Cross-voice arpeggios are supported via Staff.connectArpeggios. Unfortunately, cross-voice arpeggios *and *\arpeggioParenthesis don't work together (!), requiring us to excavate the inner workings of \arpeggioParenthesis and adapt them to the Staff context. It's details like this that make me hate LilyPond sometimes :) The final outcome: \new Staff \with { \consists "Span_arpeggio_engraver" } { \set Staff.connectArpeggios = ##t \override Staff.Arpeggio.stencil = #ly:arpeggio::brew-chord-slur \override Staff.Arpeggio.X-extent = #ly:grob::stencil-width << { b'\arpeggio } \\ { g'\arpeggio } >> % And, of course, the slur's too short vertically and there's no simple override to fix it... } Regards, Nathan
