Re: alternate notes within a part

Hello Aaron,

It depends a bit on how structured your music is. If you’ve got two Voices it 
is reasonable to give both their own relative clause.

If you music does not have a lot of complex structure a top level relative is 
very much find. Problematic are cases where notes within the music might 
change, thus affecting stuff after it. This might be the case with tags, but 
also with cues or scores in footnotes (where also someone might think about 
adding something, and suddenly the main music body has problems.

But these cases can be simply dealt with by enclosing them in an \absolute 
statement or even in another \relative statement. Lilypond will then simply 
ignore these parts for the outer relative music.

Cheers,
Valentin
