You need a \newSpacingSection each time you want to change the spacing. In
particular, you need a new one for the \revert as well as for the \override.
\relative c' {
\time 3/4
\override Score.SpacingSpanner #'spacing-increment = #2
\newSpacingSection
c'2.\sfz\> |
\revert Score.SpacingSpanner #'spacing-increment
\newSpacingSection
c4\f c r | c2.\fz\> |
r4 r g8\fz r |
}
In this particular case you don't actually need the first \newSpacingSection,
since it's the beginning of the piece, which naturally is the beginning of a
spacing section anyway. But in general you would need both.
Best wishes,
