Re: Tools for harmonic analysis (Riemann style)

[Kieren MacMillan]

Hi Urs,

I'm in need of symbols for harmonic analysis (in about the Riemann flavour). I would go for it by creating a lyrics-like context for the horizontal and vertical alignment and produce some functions that would create combined markups or stencils for the symbols. Additional challenges would be to define practical ways to use something like stanzas for modulations and boxes around that (a sample image attached).

That’s the path I took for the engravings I was recently hired to make for the Intégral journal. Here are a few screenshots:

Ex. 1

Ex. 2

Ex. 3

Of course, I didn’t need symbols as fancy as yours… but I definitely think this is your best and most flexible path forward.

Seems like this would make a great OLL module, no? If I can help, let me know.

Best,

Kieren.
