Clefs and tempo
I'm not familiar with this piece, but if it's really SATB, then the clefs are wrong. S and A should have \clef treble, and T should have \clef "G_8". Also in the MIDI output, the voices are in the wrong octaves.
In addition, the MIDI output is insanely fast. On the other hand, the tempo of the 3/2 section should be faster than that of the 4/4 section - or should it be 2/2? -- Hwellmann 10:25, 26 October 2006 (PDT)
Clefs and tempo
I'm familiar with this piece, but not with lilypond :-( It's the first piece I wrote, and you can see it...
For what concerns the midi, I thought I would upload a better version when I had learnt how to change the tempo inside the piece, and I will do it immediately if you can suggest me how.
For the clefs, I was quite stupid...
First error: the piece has a C with a bar (2/2, right?), not simply a C.solvedSecond error: I was searching for a way to not add all those iphens after notes on women voices, I found the "\clef G_8" thing and I thought "wonderful, it transposes"... I absolutely didn't notice the little "8" under the clef...found the "transpose" commandThird error: the first part I wrote was the tenor one (since I'm a tenor)... and I still didn't know che "\clef G_8" trick...corrected
If you can suggest me a way to tell at once to push up/down by an octave every note of a section, I will immediately do it.
If there's no way, and I just have to add hiphens, I will do it in few days.
Thanks for your attention... --Toobaz
Lyrics and Hyphens
Regarding the lyrics, have a look at the Lilypond manual on lyrics and melismata.
The way you did it, the hyphens are treated like (parts of) words. You should use a double hyphen '--', enclosed by whitespace, to separate syllables. Lilypond will then print as many hyphens as required, maybe none.
Melismata are handled automatically if you use legato slurs, e.g. c (d e)
. If you don't want the slurs in the printout, use
\melisma and \melismaEnd. To save typing, I usually define
bm = \melisma em = \melismaEnd
and then work with \bm and \em.
