#lilypond — Public Fediverse posts

So. Habe mich heute (mal wieder) mit #lilypond beschäftigt um meine Notensammlung - die meist aus einem Haufen Screenshots besteht - mal wieder in ordentlich zu setzen.

Und ich frage mich: Warum tu ich mir das an?

LilyPond snippet: override the bar number context property with a lambda depending on the current bar number (e.g. to pretend a bar is two or four bars long) https://gist.github.com/lucaswerkmeister/cdb1478cdc50d9e83430455a9dcdf7ef

So, erstes neues Stück für #GOMP2027 ist ziemlich fertig. Zwei weitere will ich auf jeden Fall noch arrangieren; mal sehen, was mir sonst noch einfällt.

Nebenbei habe ich noch eine alte Bearbeitung verbessert, mal gucken ob das auch ins Programm kommt.

#GOMP #lilypond

Hello world! I'm thinking of trying a new OS. At the moment I'm on #opensuse because it's European (and it was also my first Linux distro back in 2002). However I'd like to move to something with a stronger stance against llm slop.

My computing needs are modest: a web browser like #librewolf, #emacs and #lilypond cover it pretty much. Fortunately I have a wlan USB thing with open source drivers, so I have high hopes it will work.

I wanted to just reiterate how fantastic lilypond is (and once again give props to https://hacklily.org by @emilyskidsister who I only just found out today is on mastodon!)

Being able to dump the little melodies in my head quickly into a permanent / playable format on my phone has been one of my favourite uses of this cursed distraction device.

In den #Ubuntu Paketquellen ist #Lilypond nur mit Version 2.24.3 enthalten. 😭

Does anyone know what, if any, language has a zero-dependency library for rendering #lilypond files?

@aharoni I'm not sure what all the exact protocol is on Phabricator, but I moved some tickets to "In Progress" so I easily see them, not sure if that's the right thing to do... if you have time, could you have a look at my Gerrit patches - they're very small! One for an inline <span> display option, and an undocumented attribute.

@bvibber @wikimediaaotearoa @wikipedia_fr well it was nice to meet a few new folks! Managed to get a couple of patches in for the Score extension, to fix SVG backgrounds in dark mode and possibly fix SVG in WikiSource PDF exports.

Lilypond question:

Lilypond is much nicer to engrave in than Dorico/MuseScore, but the latter two are much nicer for composing (e.g., when I need to quickly insert/re-order things), at least with my current Lilypond knowledge.

Does anyone have suggestions on inserting/re-ordering material in Lilypond, or should I just do Dorico -> MusicXML -> musicxml2ly?

@bvibber @wikimediaaotearoa @wikipedia_fr is anyone else here at the Wikimania Hackathon interested in hacking on the MediaWiki Score music notation extension? We just deployed the SVG patch, but it would be cool to fix up some other stuff. I'm floating around in a purple Ubuntu 10.04 T-shirt 😃

Has anyone tried to write a MusicXML engraver in LilyPond with accurate positioning? #musicxml #lilypond #sheetmusic #hacklily #guile #mnx

Finally, a 13-year-old feature request has been deployed to Wikipedia: the music notation extension, that uses LilyPond, now does beautiful SVG output! 🎵 Behold, the music examples in the tuba article, recently reviewed to Good Article status:

@dthompson how do you manage to press down three strings with the pinky?

(the chord seems like an A shifted one string up, so I’d likely use the fingers for the high strings)

Aside: do you know that #lilypond has a guitar-chord (fret-diagram) mode?

Noms des notes :
quand j'enseignais à Valga, je devais utiliser, pour l'exemple ci-joint,

officellement
🟢 C D E F Fis G As A B H

C'était facile car cela fait 20 ans que, sur #lilypond, j'écris
🪷 C D E F Fis G Aes A Bes B

mais, les russophones ou les élèves adultes préféraient
🔵 Do Ré Mi Fa Fa# Sol Lab La Sib Si

les ados en parcours libre ou les élèves de trad
🔴 C D E F F# G Ab A Bb B

Je pensais avoir fait le tour pour l'Europe.
Et bim, le Danemark 🙄

I've been really enjoying working with Lilypond! Today I wrote about some more helpful ways to work with MIDI files in the terminal and quickly build Lilypond projects from Neovim:

Update: I found this (macOS) utility for playing MIDI files from the command line and it works great with Lilypond/Neovim!

https://ssb22.user.srcf.net/mwrhome/mac-midi.html

It's about a hundred lines of C, which means even if it's abandoned at some point I should be able to update it myself.

The problem with a lot of similar programs is they use e.g., fluidsynth, when what I want is to play the file back over the IAC bus into Max/MSP, SuperCollider/etc. This lets me choose the starting point in the MIDI file and easily play it into IAC from my terminal!

Some people are able to live code music using a Lilypond like language! This is… next level (or insane, you choose ;)

I hadn't noticed Lilypond was on a new version until just a bit ago — I saw `GNU LilyPond 2.26.0 (running Guile 3.0)` in the terminal and was momentarily very confused

Today I finally got around to joining the Lilypond mailing list and the music Stack Exchange to ask some questions, only to realize after the fact that the code I sent had just become outdated

Didn't actually need to change anything other than the version number & one meter thing, but still funny

#Lilypond

I asked this question on the music Stack Exchange, and if anyone has an answer that would be greatly appreciated!

I'm looking for how to get the doubled trill line here in Lilypond, as well as ideally, multiple noteheads in the parentheses:

More success porting Lilypond/Frescobaldi capabilities over to Neovim: I can now easily do musical transformations on Lilypond notation!

I can transpose passages, double/halve the durations, dot/undot everything, apply a completely new rhythmic pattern, or remove repeated duration indicators or make them explicit again.

This uses the remote plugin feature on Neovim: https://github.com/reillypascal/nvim/tree/main/rplugin/python3

#Neovim #Nvim #Lilypond #Frescobaldi #Python #Composition #ClassicalMusic

I think I figured it out
