4.7.3 Breath marks

Breath marks are entered using \breathe:

     c'4 \breathe d4

The glyph of the breath mark can be tweaked by overriding the text property of the BreathingSign layout object with any markup text. For example,

     c'4
     \property Voice.BreathingSign \override #'text
      = #(make-musicglyph-markup "scripts-rvarcomma")
     \breathe
     d4
