Hi Jesse,
If \context allegedly allows one to add notes to an existing context,
why does the following example not do so?
\version "2.10.33"
\new Staff = "mycontext" \relative c' { c4 d e f g2. }
\context Staff = "mycontext" \relative c' { g'4 g f e d c1 }
Because you have asked (implicitly) for two different Staff
contexts. =)
What you want is to force the two musics to be *consecutive* rather
than *concurrent*:
{ \new Staff = "mycontext" \relative c' { c4 d e f g2. } \context
Staff = "mycontext" \relative c' { g'4 g f e d c1 } }
... and if you add an explicit \score you will need an extra set of
braces - one set to delimit the single compound music expression
which is required by the score block, and one set to make the
two statements consecutive. This can be really puzzling! (The inner
set is shorthand for \sequential { ... }, a command which is never
required to be stated explicitly.}
\score {
{
\new Staff = "mycontext" \relative c' { c4 d e f g2. }
\context Staff = "mycontext" \relative c' { g'4 g f e d c1 }
}
}
Hope this helps!
Kieren.
