Peter,
>From trial and error I learned, if a cadenza is started mid-measure (say on
the second of four beats), then Lilypond want to start the nest meterd part
on the third beat.
The solution is to star the cadenza on the first beat of the measure.
As to the bass it can be "fudged" with a number of spacers equal to the
duration of the cadenza.
Here is my code:
\language "english"
\version "2.19.83"
\score {
<<
\new Staff {
\time 4/4
{
c'4 4 4 4 |
\cadenzaOn 4 4 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 \cadenzaOff \bar "|"
R1 }
}
\new Staff {
\time 4/4
\clef "bass"
{
c1
4 4 s4*2 r2\fermata s4*4 |
}
}
>>
}

Subject: Free rhythm in part of a bar
I need to have part only of a bar notated with free rhythm. Also other
staves need to be synchronised. I've tried using \cadenzaOn but then I get a
barcheck problem and the next bar goes odd. I can't see anything about this
in the snippets or manuals. A minimal example follows.
There seem to be two issues:
1) How do I get the desired result, which is one bar with the first 2
crotchets synchronised with the bass, and the rest unsynchronised?
2) This isn't in the example, but what if I want a free section within a
bar, but synchronised accompaniment at the beginning and end of the bar
(e.g. a chord on the final note of a cadenza).
\language "english"
\version "2.19.83"
\score {
<<
\new Staff {
\time 4/4
{
c'4 4 4 4 |
4 4 \cadenzaOn 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 \bar "|" \cadenzaOff
R1
}
}
\new Staff {
\time 4/4
\clef "bass"
{
c1
4 4 r2\fermata |
}
}
>>
}
Thanks in advance,
Peter
