The name of the Staff you want to change to is either "rh" or "lh", since that's the names you have specified for the staves. It seems that you have confused these with the names of the variables/macros/identifiers that contain the actual music. /Mats David Fedoruk wrote: Hello: I've used t

LilyPond interprets dynamics the same way as a musician does, namely that each dynamics indication lasts until the next one appears, so there's no need to repeat the same dynamics indication (actually, LilyPond follows this rule much more strictly than most musicians). /Mats Marco Pagliari
