Cello bow slurs

I have an exercise which requires starting a note on one string, then adding a second note while the first is still sounding. Graphically, it looks like a slur. My problem is that, in order to get timing right, I have to use two voices, and of course, I can't slur from one to the other. I'm a

Hi Peter, I will ask him about this, and I will also check some other scores of mine to see if I find these kind of beams. And if it would not be asking you too much, do you know if Gould says something on her book about the distance between clef, key signature, time signature and the first note

Hi Janek, I showed him two scores of mine, one with default settings for size, and the had #(set-global-staff-size 18) This friend of mine was working with contemporary music as far as I know, so probably this is why he thought of that as being a rule. I spoke to him about it once again right now

Horizontally-Centered Stems for re, mi, and ti

I was looking at Jesse Aiken's _Christian Minstrel_, the original source of Aiken-style shape note heads, and I saw that he centers the noteheads on the stems for the symmetrical shapes, i.e. re, mi, and ti. I think it improves the recognizability of the shapes, and I'd like to do it in my shap
