Now that I've done the whole tenor part, it comes back to me why nobody uses \cadenzaOn as a way to get unbarred music. It doesn't by default do any linebreaking. So you can put in "\set Score.barAlways = ##t", but when I did that in this particular piece, it broke a dotted rhythm. They actually did print that way in the sixteenth century, but nobody I know in the twentyfirst century wants to read something printed that way. So you're only going to do this in situations where you don't mind doing the line breaking manually. I posted the result of this on my blog as Lilypond vs. Petrucci, round 3. <http://laymusic.org/wordpress/?p=1079>. -- Laura (mailto:lcon...@laymusic.org http://www.laymusic.org/ ) (617) 661-8097 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139 The good Christian should beware of mathematicians, and all those who make empty prophecies. The danger already exists that the mathematicians have made a covenant with the devil to darken the spirit and to confine man in the bonds of Hell.
