I would like to add the basic solfege note names to the english language
module so that I can enter music (mostly chant) using solfege and then
use `\transpose` to adjust its sounding pitch to create a midi file
which can be used for practice. So far, I've done this by editing
define-note-names.scm to add the appropriate lines. While this works
fine locally, it makes for files which are not portable. Is there a way
to add pitch names/aliases in a more portable fashion (i.e. within the
music file itself).
%%% BEGIN SNIPPET %%%
\version "2.19.80"
\language "english"
% I need something that will define these note names like adding
(do . ,(ly:make-pitch -1 0 NATURAL)) etc. in the appropriate
place in define-note-names.scm does
music = { do re me fa sol la ti do }
\score {
\new Staff {
% note the mixing of the solfege names with
% a traditional english note name in the following line
\new Voice \transpose do d' \music
}
\midi {
\tempo 4 = 120
}
}
%%% END SNIPPET %%%
