You seem to equate ligatures with legato, I'd be interested to hear if you have any references to that. > I can code the first one in its 8th image like this: > > << \tag #'Urtext { \[ d1 e1*3/4 \] } > \tag #'Modern { d1 e2. } >> f4 g1 > > but don't find any way to get the E in black. This is what I did one in a time (\version "2.6.5"): g1 \[ d \melisma % this is a fake minor calor, together with the moved b4 \once \override TextScript #'extra-offset = #'( 0.9 . -1.8) a'1*3/4^\markup{ \beam #0.9 #0 #0.5 } \] (found near the end of [1]). The result was on page 7 (between 64 and 65) in [2].
