Sorry for being unclear. So I would like to change the typeface of dynamics like \p, \mf, etc.
The command >> \override DynamicText #'font-name = "Linux Libertine" did work, because all my dynamics now have the plain Linux Libertine typeface. The problem is that they have their regular fontstyle, whereas I would like them to be bold and italic. The manual says that editing font-name in that way overrides all settings in font-series or font-shape. This is why this part of the command > > \override DynamicText #'font-series = #'bold did not affect the result. So my question is whether there is another way to change the default typeface of the dynamics where I can specify the font-styles like bold and italic.
