Hi Eyolf

No one has looked at Chapter 6 yet, but I agree this could be improved. I'll do it now.

You can read about music functions in the documentation. See the notation
reference for 2.11, section 6.  Music functions.

The paradigm in the beginning is confusing:

function =
   #(define-music-function (parser location var1 var2... )
                           (var1-type? var2-type?...)
     #{
       ...music...
     #})

where

argi        ith variable

argi-type?  type of variable


It is clear what it means, of course, but a mathematician would be troubled
by a where clause which defines arguments which are not present in the
equation, and a musician may be confused by it, at least intially.
