Hi, a "notational correctness" question rather than a lilypond technical
question, hope that's okay.
A student brought in some work today, some of which calls for three voices in
the right hand of a PianoStaff. Minus expressive marks, the lilypond example
below gets the point across, but I wonder if there's a better way? The
collision at the beginning of bar 2, between the a4~ a2 tie and the c# in voice
1, seems inevitable but it isn't pretty. (\tieDown looks even worse.)
So, those of you with a notation reference or two in your library, how would
you handle this?
Thanks!
James
PS Sorry for the non-tiny example. In this case, the voicing is complex enough
that I wanted to be explicit about all the new voices.
\version "2.14.2"
\include "english.ly"
\score {
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff {
\key d \major
\numericTimeSignature
<<
\new Voice \relative c'' {
\voiceOne
r2 r8 cs?4.~ cs2
}
\new Voice \relative c'' {
\voiceTwo
a16 fs e fs \repeat tremolo 2 { e fs } \repeat tremolo 2 { e fs } a16
fs e fs
\repeat tremolo 4 { e fs }
}
\new Voice \relative c'' {
\voiceThree
a2. a4~ a2
}
>>
r2
}
\new Staff {
\key d \major \clef bass
\numericTimeSignature
<<
\new Voice \relative c' {
\voiceOne
g16 b c b \repeat tremolo 2 { c b } \repeat tremolo 2 { c b } g16 b c

\repeat tremolo 4 { c b }
}
\new Voice \relative c' {
\voiceTwo

}
