That comma should be a dot. Sometimes I can't see the difference! So Score.SystemStartBrace ... The documention in "Available music functions" that you're reading is all there is for 2.16. Full documentation wasn't written for the function until syntax changes had happened to it. There is complete documentation for 2.18 at http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/modifying-broken-spanners You can use the examples there in 2.16 by swapping arguments, but you can't use \alterBroken as a tweak (which is the chief advantage gained by the reordering of arguments). You might consider upgrading, as there have been quite a few improvements to LilyPond besides this! --David
