I set up draft.wikilily.org if anyone wants to have a go at it - set up a talk page or put a few .ly sources up - be my guest. I think the DNS stuff has propagated. -Mike

New "Free cultural works" label

Valentin Villenave — 2008-06-05T06:21:17

Hi Chris, hi everybody, as you may have noticed, the Creative Commons have just created a new label that marks "free" works as in "compatible with FSF logic"; I think you might be interested in having a look at: http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/8051 Perhaps that could be interesting for Mutopie licenses definitions, could it? Cheers, Valentin

1000 pieces

Chris Sawer — 2007-11-04T14:07:47

Hi, Just to let you know that the Mutopia archive reached 1000 pieces today! Many thanks to all of the contributors over the last eight years. The 1000th piece was, appropriately enough, "Untitled" contributed by Stan Sanderson at 0304 GMT this morning. Incremental improvements to the archive/website continue. The most recent is a "change history" feature allowing you to see what has changed when a piece has been updated, be it a correction, for example: http://www.mutopiaproject.org/cgibin/piece-info.cgi?id=1075 or additional movements/instruments, for example: http://www.mutopiaproject.org/cgibin/piece-info.cgi?id=1026 I intend to update the website making it clearer that corrections are accepted and encouraged. I have a large number of LilyPond versions installed on my system (some using virtualization with old versions of Linux), so updating most pieces is relatively simple. Further improvements are to come, not least the updating of the CGI-generated pages (music info + search results) to

IMSLP

Geoff Lehr — 2007-10-20T16:32:32

Hey all, Just so you know (and some of you may already), IMSLP is going through a rough spot right now after having received a(n unfounded, IMHO) cease and desist from UE. It's offline for the time being. Thanks, Geoff

Fingering numbers

Stjepan Brbot — 2007-10-14T21:45:55

Hi all, when one defines fingering numbers for notes with slurs, numbers are positioned always over slur line (if it if upper slur). That could be very high, too much for corresponding note. How to define that slur position is ignored for fingering numbers. I want that fingering numbers are positioned over note regardless of slur line.

Full bar rest not horizontally centered

Stjepan Brbot — 2007-10-14T21:14:09

Hi all, how to horizontally center full bar rest? Now when I put only rest in empty bar it is rendered on first beat instead of horizontal center.

Pedal mark (Ped*) distance

Stjepan Brbot — 2007-10-14T21:06:39

Hi all, how I can control the vertical distance between lower stave and pedal marks line? Sometimes when I want to squize more staves on one page my Pedal line is to high.

Vertically centered dynamics signs

Stjepan Brbot — 2007-10-13T21:50:07

Hi all, as a new member and newbie for LilyPond I have one question; is it possible to define that all dynamics signs (ppp, pp, ..., fff, crescendo, decrescendo, ...) should be vertically centered between left hand and right hand piano staves? Now when I define note with e.g. piano dynamics like c\p my "p" vertically and horizontally follows my note (below), sometimes is higher sometimes lower. I'd like all dynamics signs in my score to be vertically centered by default. Thx in advance Stjepan

[meta] Can we add this mailing list to Gmane?

Unknown — 2007-07-24T21:18:20

Hi all, I recently started using Gmane (http://www.gmane.org), a free mail-to- news gateway that allows mailing list users to view messages through a Usenet newsreader. A bunch of high-profile open source projects (including LilyPond) use Gmane, so I was writing to see whether there's any opposition to adding mutopia-discuss to Gmane. (Gmane already includes a group for the apparently-defunct mutopia-announce list.) If we were to do so, everyone would be able to post to and read the list just as before, but it would also be possible to view the list through a newsreader. Gmane has a comprehensive FAQ at http:// gmane.org/faq.php, and information on adding a list is available at http://gmane.org/add.php. If there's no significant opposition to this idea within a couple of days, I'll go ahead and add the list myself.

New comer, new scores

Unknown — 2007-07-24T21:18:18

Hello, I don't know if this is the right place, for it, and I apologize if it is not: I am finishing a few lieder (song with piano) of Schubert with Lilypond: they are - An die Musik D 547 - Auf dem Wasser zu singen D 774 - Erlk?nig D 328 - Du bist die Ruh D 776 - Ungeduld (Die sch?ne M?llerin D 795 n? 7) - Ellen's dritter Gesang (Ave Maria) D 839 (I've read on the list today that someone is preparing the piano version) - An Sylvia D 891 (but you have it already, anyway, it is finished) All the scores come from the university of Indiana ( http://www.dlib.indiana.edu/variations/scores/) and are in the Public domain (An old Peters Edition from the beginning of the 20th century, though there is no date) I am a fan of Schubert's Lieder, so I will continue on this way. I want both a beautiful score and a beautiful and complete Midi output. Wish you my best regards. Philippe Raynaud (Paris) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Mozart Sonate facile, first try

Unknown — 2007-07-24T21:18:15

Hello, I have just completed the transcription of the first movement of this sonata from an IMSLP source. That version has a lot of annotations that I'm sure are not in the original urtext. Anyway they may be useful to study the piece. This first version surely has some mistakes that I will correct later, but I have few questions about lilypond: 1.- How to make a trill span in a single mesure for a single note without invading another mesure? (mesure 25, line 89). Besides it should finish with a grace (see mesures 25 and 69 in IMSLP version). 2.- I am using several transpositions of repeated parts. The notes go fine but of course the transposed fingering is not right. Is there a way to assign different fingering to different transpositions? 3.- Finally, lilypond complains about being unable to end slurs when they are oppened or closed at different relative blocks. What should I do? Thank you in advance for any hint. Alejandro Sierra -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was sc

Scanned version and exchange of library ressources

Unknown — 2007-07-24T21:18:12

Hello One of the main problem that I have to contribute Mutopia is to find out of copyright music. The musical libraries that I know do not have the precise partitions that I want to play and to lilypondize. But maybe an other music library in the world has. So it should be great to open an new section in the mutopia's website which serves to say ? I am searching for Telemann recorder fantasias ! ? If someone find it, he can email me a scanned version that I can lilypondize. An other advantage is to allow non-expert in informatics to contribute by simply find, scan and email sheets of music. It can be done by every musicians without particular computer knowledge. To be brief: I am sure that some music library in the world has an old edition of these these fucky recorder fantasias. How to ask them to the whole Mutopia community ? What do you think about ? Laurent

Metronome and other markings on Bach Inventions

Unknown — 2007-07-24T21:18:10

Hi, I happened accross the Back 2 Part Inventions since they are said to be good for technical development while being musical at the same time, i.e. more fun that Hanon and co. Being able to play it musically up to the indicated tempo is the "test." I first downloaded free versions of the Bach Inventions from SMA ( http://www.sheetmusicarchive.net/single_listing.cfm?composer_id=2 ). Then I heard about mutopia and reckoned newly engraved editions should look better, and in fact they do! OTOH the Mutopia version seems to be missing quite a number of markings that are present in the SMA version and seem important. Before I mention them, let me first say that I am quite new to music (I've only been taking piano lessons for a couple of months), so please excuse any assumptions/mistakes I make from ignorance. I always appreciate instructional/educational remarks :) I'll show specific examples related to the first invetion, but similar comments seem to apply to the rest. * Metronome and Tempo markings The SM
