Amazing. It's like Wagner was being charged double for every ledger line, and used crook changes and clef changes to avoid them. The trumpet part has as many changes as the horn part. I do have to say that I don't intuitively understand why no key signatures were used. I understand it is tradition, but I don't see why an exception was needed. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
