I guess it would be helpful that when I try to call:

\override #'(font-name . "Garamond Premier Pro Display")

I cannot get the override, and thus the font reverts to sans. I have the font installed on my system, so I know it's not an issue of the font being installed. Perhaps this helps.

Hello all!

I am trying to use different variants of Garamond Premier, especially the Display weight and Narrow Widths. at any moment's notice. I seem to be able to do it for some of them, but not others. In particular, I'll use the narrow variant of Minion Pro for lyrics by calling:

\override LyricFont.font-name = "Minion Pro Cond"

in \layout{}. But, when I want to change just a single instance of the font in, let's say, a \markup{}, I can't find a way to do it.

I'm sure I'll eat my shoe, but I'd appreciate the help here. Thank you in advance.

For example,

c1^\markup {  \override #'(font-name . "Minion Pro") "hello" } c c

Is this what you are looking for? :)
