Hello all,
I am typing the lyrics to a hymn, and it has the line: The cry “To arms!”
is heard afar and near. How do I do those quotations without Frescobaldi
thinking it’s a string of code? Also I am the newbie-est of newbies with
coding and this program here so please be gentle and very specific!
Thank you, Jean! The first option with the backslashes worked perfectly.

Thank you so much! I was wondering about the double dots as well.

Following up on this question from thursday, how do I insert the curly
quotes? I copied them from your email but would like to know how to do them
myself!

Thank you Aaron!!
(Anyone who types “blessèd” that much probably works in a similar line of
work to me - that word sounds funny to me with just one syllable now! I am
a church organist/ music director.)!

Hello all,
If there is a literal hyphen in the text, not a hyphen that breaks
up/extends a single word, how do I indicate that to Frescobaldi? Thank you!
(I couldnt find it on the manual!)
the text is:
The fight is on - the trumpet call is ringing out... (old Baptist hymn.)
Thank you!
Best,
Kira
Absolutely no purpose, other than that it is in the original scan and my
instructions were to follow the original as closely as possible! It is
from a 1989 Baptist hymnal that has some interesting formatting issues, so
yes, it is absolutely not practical. Thank you though!!

Hi Carl,
What do you mean by a code sample? I am sorry to be so ignorant - I was
told I would be using MuseScore, then day one of this gig told "here, learn
Lilypond instead" so I had to kind of crash-course this! those are very
different little beasts!
Thank you!
Best,
Kira

Oh my this is getting way more involved than I expected! I’m re-thinking
this in terms of the interruption dash Valentin mentioned. The formatting
in old hymnals is sometimes really hard to parse out, and there are
frequently mistakes, but I think that an interruption dash makes the most
sense in t
Hi Ken,
That’s a lovely vague indication, isn’t it! I always felt it implied more
of a playing style than a tempo, but everything I have played that has had
that marking has been mostly along the lines of an “andantino.” It’s hard
to give an exact metronome marking for that, though, it depends on t
po changes to a march, so I can figure that out.

Hello all!
I realize this is a pretty basic question... but what is the
difference between voiceOne and oneVoice? I am writing a multivoice
keyboard-style hymn (as opposed to SATB chorale style) and the directions
say to switch between oneVoice and voiceOne as needed for stem direction...

I think that made sense! I will try it out and let you know if it doesnt!

Sorry! I am still new, I havent made a tiny example yet... some of the
features of FlexScores only work with 2.16.2, so that is why Hymnary still
uses it.

Another question...
In the score, the Spanish title is smaller. Is there a way to do that in
the header block within the quotation marks? (the fs information is
specifically for the Hymnary FlexScores)

That solution didn’t work for me, but I thought it was probably user error
and decided to try again later 😂 Valentin also submitted a response in
that previous thread. I need it to separate between Spanish and English
text in a hymn. I never realized what a strange format some hymns are!

Hi all,
My latest project is some Spanish/English hymns. Mostly I have it figured
out, but I have a question about text. It is convention in Spanish music to
have multiple syllables on one note slurred together with that little mark
under and between the syllables, achieved with the *example~more -
if it was
just English, but it really is necessary for the Spanish text!

I don’t know if this will help, but another way to notate that is simply a
hyphen between the two fingerings, if you have space to have that. It might
be easier to notate?

Hi all,
I saw this referenced in the Frescobaldi manual, but is it possible to have
multiple versions of Lilypond installed on my computer at once? Many of you
know I have to use version 2.16.2 for my work (don't ask me why, I honestly
don't know), but I would like to use a more recent version for

I am also a new user, but what draws me to Lilypond is the sheer aesthetics
of it. Even the most basic thing created with Lilypond looks 1000 times
more professional and attractive than MuseScore, in my opinion! It is a
learning curve though, one I’m still slogging through!

I can't speak to the Lilypond notation, but only to the actual score
notation. When is this piece of music from? Different composers used
various trill markings to mean different things, but the 16th notes,
although they are notated normally, are probably part of the ornament.

I’m personally not a fan of the splayed stem notation - I’ve never seen it
before so it makes me go “what?” before I get to the notes. It also sort of
looks like the a natural should be played first because it’s stem goes down
to the beam? I would rather have the b-double flat notation - then the
I love it! That is amazing, and no need to apologize for your piano

Ditto to what Martin said, and I’ll add that if it’s organ music it means
play the bass line with the feet. (Unless another line is specifically
stated as being the pedal line).

It is true that Bach used the signs interchangeably, but if a trill
terminates before the note itself terminates in his music, it indicates to
stop trilling at that point and continue holding the note. At least that’s
how we interpret his organ music notations!

Well, someone has to put that info in. If it’s for a whole section, either
it’s the composer or the orchestra librarian. Who cares of the conductor
changes it, that’s their choice.
If it’s for a single player like a keyboardist, I would be inclined to
leave more open to the player - I am a keyboar

Hey all,
I know this is a bit off-topic but it's on-topic for me... also I don't
know who else to ask, the muse-score forums aren't very helpful.
I use Lilypond, Musescore, and musicxml files for my work. Please, no
comments on the quality of Musescore, the decision to use it was above my
paygrade.
