This is a correct engraving. Only one sound is to be played. This notation means "there's a melody going on like that: \relative c { \key g \major e8 [( f)] f' a, f f'~ f4 } and by the way, there's a bass line like this \relative c { \key g \major \voiceTwo e4 f f f } And atually, some of the sounds are shared". hth, Janek _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
