Classical notation

Regular notation:

\version "2.12.2" << \new Staff </p> <pre>\with { \override StaffSymbol #'line-count = #3 } \relative c' { \clef percussion \time 2/2 a4 c8 c a4 e'8 e | a,4 c8 c a4 e'8 e \bar "|." } \addlyrics { R R L R R L R R L R R L } </pre> <p>>>


Example useful for teaching: Notation with superfluous strikes added:

\version "2.12.2" << \new Staff </p> <pre>\with { \override StaffSymbol #'line-count = #3 } \relative c' { \clef percussion \time 2/2 a4 c8 c a4 e'8 e | a,4 c8 c a4 e'8 e \bar "|." } \addlyrics { R R L R R L R R L R R L } \addlyrics { B O O B S S B O O B S S } </pre> <p>>>

Makam bug

cf manual "Makam is a type of melody from Turkey using 1/9th-tone microtonal alterations. Consult the initialization file ‘ly/makam.ly’ for details of pitch names and alterations."
