Re: What is the correct way(TM) to set a Rezitationston?
I printed and processed the pot of coffee for myself, and thought I
might as well put it into these archives.
I added the overlooked lyric alignment, changed the hyphenation (most
disappears) and removed the indentation. Ragged right closes up the
syllables. In any case, I've always printed recitatives ragged so that
I don't lose my place under pressure.

LilyPond (which is free software) includes a command-line conversion tool called midi2ly. http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/usage/invoking-midi2ly This converts a MIDI file into a LilyPond .ly text file. In my experience, this works fairly well for getting pitches and durations into LilyPond. Although LilyPond makes great PDF files, expect to be doing some cleanup and editing work on the midi2ly conversion results. -- Karlin High Missouri, USA ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

I tried to use the proper LilyPond list syntax here:
\override StaffSymbol.break-align-symbols =
time-signature,key-signature,staff-bar,break-alignment
– which would be beautiful, but the parser doesn’t expect it there.
Could that be made working, David?

Override arguments are not type-checked at parsing time, so the syntax
cannot be adopted according to the accepted type. The situation is
similar for \tweak: while it is a music function, its value type cannot
be changed on-the-fly depending on the name of the preceding symbol: it
is always scheme? .
If we require lookahead for _any_ string matched by a generic predicate
like scheme? in order to see whether there is a "," following maybe, and
then convert what started out as a symbol into a list of symbols, a lot
of syntax will behave more weirdly.
Giving \override type-sensitive syntax without being able to do so for
\tweak would be highly inconsistent, and the current music function
argument processing does not allow us to calculate a symbol-list?
predicate after having seen the incomplete argument list of
\tweak StaffSymbol.break-align-symbols .
So no. It cannot reasonably be made to work like you want, but you can
define a music function for overriding break-align-symbols specifically
and give that function an argument type of symbol-list? (which obviously
means that you cannot use the \etc shortcut).

Issue 4811/1: Allow property paths as scalars and in assignments
They cannot be embedded LilyPond since #{ 2 . 2 #} already is valid

Property paths must have at least two syntactic elements to be

Technically, 3 . #'() counts.
This affects overrides and sets as well.
So I have no idea what problem you are seeing here.

Yes, you can do this using the function grob::rhythmic-location which
will return a pair consisting of the bar number and the moment within
that bar of the passed-in grob.
Example of usage:
\version "2.19.30"
#(define after-break-function
(lambda (grob)
(let* ((loc (grob::rhythmic-location grob))
(bar (car loc))
(mom (cdr loc))
(name (grob::name grob)))
(format #t "~%~a at ~a of measure ~a" name mom bar
\relative c {
\override NoteHead.after-line-breaking = #after-break-function
\repeat unfold 20 { c2 d }
}
I don't remember when the function was introduced, but you will need
one of the development releases (2.19.something) to use it (and
grob::name as well).
Hope this gets you started--
David

[ANN] Seven Music Notation Programs
About ten years ago a group of us decided to do a comparison of the most popular notation programs, to see how each program looked in print. Although one program's output can be made to look much like another's, some aspects of that are easier to do, and it’s interesting how the personality of the pages varies. I mentioned this to Abraham Lee, a noted designer of music fonts, who replied: > I couldn’t agree more! It really is amazing to see how each application > embeds its own personality into the score’s appearance, beyond what is > “correct” or not. Truly fascinating, indeed! Although feature set and interface may be more important to some in the choice of an engraving program, this comparison was done for those especially interested in high quality publication. Unsolicited comments on "Six Music Notation Programs" included “Absolutely amazing! . . . Interesting! . . . This is certainly a worth while endeavor . . . a really great idea and I’m glad that someone is taking the time to do it the right way . . . I love seeing how each program handles music.” It's time for an update, both to include two new popular programs and to revise other programs' samples using the latest versions. So "Seven Music Notation Programs", with a one-page score for classical guitar as done in Finale, LilyPond, MuseScore, Notion, Overture, Score and Sibelius, is at: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/64325719/Seven%20Music%20Notation%20Programs.pdf Many thanks to Abraham Lee, who did the LilyPond sample.
