Hi all,
I'm working on a choral piece for SSATBB using 2.10, and would love to get an
automatic piano reduction to go along with it. With 4 vocal parts this was no
problem, but I'm not sure if it's possible in a clean way with 6. What I've
been trying so far is essentially the following:
right hand:
\partcombine { << { \sop1 } // { \stemUp \sop2 } >> \alto }
left hand:
\partcombine { \tenor << { \stemDown \bass1 } // { \bass2 } >> }
This "works", in that it gets all 6 parts on two lines. However, things like:
slurs, triplet brackets, etc are overlapping all over the place, since they're
not combined between the two parts in the << { } \\ { } >> notation.
Additionally, rests are not combined there when they can be, so if all 3 parts
are tacet at that point, there are two rests in the piano line. Lilypond
complains all over the place about stems and such overlapping too. I searched
the LSR, but didn't find anything besides the current 4 part template. If the
current approach is the only way, is there a way to do things like turn off the
rests in one part when in the piano reduction, but not in the score, same with
articulations, etc - besides tagging every single thing.
Thanks for any suggestions!
Ben
