Subject: 3 staff piano score
Dear List,
in some, especially contemporary piano literature, a piano can have more
than 2 staffs, for example three or four, usually only for the duration
of a few bars.
I usually notate my music using \parallelMusic.
My question is: how do I achive this? I would like a third or fourth
staff to appear only during some bars, not continuously.
Example:
(Trying to use a second pair of
"\parallelMusic" and "<< \new Staff>>",
but this doesn't work.
\parallelMusic #'(voiceA voiceB) {
c''1|
c'1|
%Bar 2
d''1|
d'1|
}
\parallelMusic #'(voiceC voiceD voiceE) {
%Bar 3
e''1|
e'1|
c'1|
}
\score {
\new PianoStaff \with {
instrumentName = "Klavier"
}
<<
\new Staff {\voiceA}
\new Staff {\voiceB}
>>
<<
\new Staff {\voiceC}
\new Staff {\voiceD}
\new Staff {\voiceE}
>>
\layout { }
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Gabriel
Have you tried \Staff \RemoveEmptyStaves ?
