Post-Cadenza Music

2004-03-12 Thread Will Oram
As described in a previous e-mail, I have a helluva large cadenza printed for solo violin. It is unmeasured, and it probably has a length only calculatable using 32nd notes. If I want to start tutti playing back up after the cadenza, what do I do? Include s(x)*32 in every instrument's ly file t

Do you mean how it should be notated or how to get it in the MIDI output from LilyPond? For the notation, I usually write it like 1x f 2x p below the staff, at least when I write it in by hand in an orchestral part. I'm not sure if I have seen it in printed scores, though. /Mats Edward Sanford
