Añadir un bajo cifrado encima o debajo de las notas

Al escribir un bajo cifrado, podemos situar las cifras encima o debajo de las notas del bajo, mediante la definición de la propiedad BassFigureAlignmentPositioning #'direction (exclusivamente dentro de un contexto Staff). Se puede elegir entre #UP (o #1, arriba), #CENTER (o #0, centrado) y #DOWN (o #-1, abajo).

Esta propiedad se puede cambiar tantas veces como queramos. Utilice \once \override si no quiere que la sobreescritura se aplique a toda la partitura.

  \clef bass

  \set Staff.useBassFigureExtenders = ##t

Plantilla para notación de música antigua (transcripción moderna de canto gregoriano)

Este ejemplo muestra cómo hacer una transcripción moderna de canto gregoriano. El canto gregoriano no tiene compás ni plicas; utiliza solamente cabezas de nota de blanca y de negra, y unas marcas especiales que indican silencios de distintas longitudes.

\include "gregorian.ly"

chant = \relative c' {
  \set Score.timing = ##f
  f4 a2 \divisioMinima
  g4 b a2 f2 \divisioMaior
  g4( f) f( g) a2 \finalis
}

verba = \lyricmode {

}

\score {
  \new GregorianTranscriptionStaff <<
    \new GregorianTranscriptionVoice = "melody" \chant
    \new GregorianTranscriptionLyrics = "one" \lyricsto melody \verba

}

Este tipo de notación se utiliza para los cantos salmódicos, en que las estrofas no siempre tienen la misma longitud.

Incipit

Al transcribir música mensural, es útil poner un incipit al comienzo de la pieza para indicar la tonalidad y el compás originales. Actualmente los músicos están acostumbrados a las líneas del pentagrama, pero en el período de la música mensural aún no se utilizaban. Como compromiso, con frecuencia se imprimen líneas divisorias entre los pentagramas, un estilo de diseño conocido como mensurstriche.

La disposición «mensurstriche» en que las líneas divisorias no están dibujadas sobre los pentagramas, sino entre ellos, se puede conseguir con un StaffGroup en vez de un ChoirStaff. La línea divisoria sobre los pentagramas se borra usando \hide.

Using tags to produce mensural and modern music from the same source

Using tags, it is possible to produce both mensural and modern notation from the same music. In this snippet, a function menrest is introduced, allowing mensural rests to be pitched as in the original, but with modern rests in the standard staff position. Tags can also be used where other differences are needed: for example using “whole measure rests” (R1, R\breve, etc.) in modern music, but normal rests (r1, r\breve, etc.) in the mensural version. Converting mensural music to its modern equivalent is usually referred to as “transcription”.

menrest = #(define-music-function (note)
  (ly:music?)

    \tag #'mens $(make-music 'RestEvent note)
    \tag #'mod $(make-music 'RestEvent note 'pitch '())

Línea vertical como una articulación barroca

Esta línea corta vertical situada encima de la nota es de uso común en música barroca. Su significado varía, pero en general indica notas que se deben tocar con más “peso”. El ejemplo siguiente muestra cómo conseguir dicha notación.

upline =
\tweak stencil
  #(lambda (grob)
    (grob-interpret-markup grob #{ \markup \draw-line #'(0 . 1) #}))
  \stopped

\relative c' {
