I've done two things. First, I've rewritten your code in a way that's
easier for me to read.
Second, and more to the point, I've changed the "outside" set of slurs
to phrasing slurs. AFAIK, you can't nest regular slurs. Please take a
look at
<http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/learning/ties-and-slurs> .
That's not true anymore: In recent versions (starting at some point in
the 2.19.xx series), slurs can be assigned a "name" allowing them to be
referenced, and in particular, nested (cf.
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/changes/index.html):
\version "2.19.83"
\language "english"
\fixed c'
{ <<
{
f4 e8 c8~( c4 e8\=inner( f8\inner) ) | % the \( and \) are
phrasing slurs.
}
\\
{
f4 e8 c~ 4~ 4 ||
}
>>
}
Though I admit that the layout engine handles the phrasing slur better
in this specific situation.
By the way, it's even possible to do
\version "2.19.82"
\fixed c' {
c\=1( d e^\=2( f\=1) g a\=2)
}
IMHO this feature alone is worth the (negligible) trouble of switching
to recent development versions.
Best
Lukas
