Hi List, I'm taking the plunge to write a pretty big orchestra piece with lilypond (contemporary music) and am wondering how to organize the parts: There will be sections in the piece where e.g. the first violins are split (maybe sometimes only for a couple of bars and up to 14 different parts). In the score, the unisono parts should get notated only on one staff. For staff systems containing bars with divisi strings, each instrument should get its own staff (replicating existing unisono bars on all staffs). In the individual parts I'd like to have parts with each instrument having only his/her part in it.
Can someone give an advice how to handle this elegantly avoiding to fork source files for the note material of score and parts? As I say, the piece is long (about 45') and for big orchestra (ca. 90 musicians) and heavy electronics, so I really have to plan carefully to avoid a desaster preparing the material. Despite all sorts of unix tools like make, git and such this is quite an endeavour for me so any advice from experienced lilyponders is appreciated! Yours, Orm _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
