Hi Rachel,

For some reason, the \break command doesn’t seem to be working in this
example. I need a new line to start after the first measure so that
all the notes of the following measure can fit on the same line. Any
ideas? I’ve tried adding breaks in the cadenza section to see if they
work elsewhere using \bar “” \break , but I can’t get the line to
break anywhere.
Best,
Rachel

Unfortunately, the source code you posted does not compile. It uses
undefined commands like \up, and I'm surprised to see constructs like
"[f'32( df df af)]": beams are postfix in LilyPond.
Judging from the picture you attached, I'd suspect that \override
Beam.breakable = ##t might be helpful in your situation.
