Hello LilyPonders,
I am trying to do a title page / cover page using LaTex without too much

The result I get is a Y-centered text (on LaTex) but with a noticeable

Well... future patterns later in the piece are larger than hand size, and, it
plays fast and soft enough that I find it unreasonable to play with one hand.

Doing some research, I've seen both uses (bar number reset and number
