Hi Larry,

The documentation for LilyPond is extremely detailed and quite a lot of
info can be found in it...make sure you head over and check out the
Learning / Notation manuals so you can get up to speed. :)

The tempo can be set easily by using the Tempo command, for example:

  
\tempo "Andante"
   
or:

\tempo 4. = 96
  
or even:

\tempo "Presto" 4 = 120
 
}


See this link for more information -->

Also, make sure you let us know what version of LilyPond you are using,
often times that can make a difference with the syntax and we can help
you better.

Welcome to LilyPond!
