Here is my MWE (structure of lilypond coding regarding part of “Combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda” by Claudio Monteverdi):
\key do\major \time 3/2 \set Score.measureLength = #(ly:make-moment 6 2) \tempo \breve. = 70 s\breve.*20\break \time 4/4 \set Score.measureLength = #(ly:make-moment 4 4) \tempo 2 = 65 s1*35\break \once \override Score.RehearsalMark.extra-offset = #'(+13 . -1) \mark\markup\italic\column{ "Sinfonia"} \key fa\major s1*60\break \once \override Score.RehearsalMark.extra-offset = #'(+15 . -1) \mark\markup\italic\column{ "Principio della guerra"} \key do\major \time 3/2 \tempo \breve. = 70 \set Score.measureLength = #(ly:make-moment 6 2) s\breve.*6 \time 4/4 \set Score.measureLength = #(ly:make-moment 4 4) \tempo 2 = 60 s1*38\break \time 3/2 \tempo \breve. = 70 \set Score.measureLength = #(ly:make-moment 6 2) s\breve.*4 % and so on \bar "||” When I change \tempo in 3/2 time the speed is more or less the same...
