Hello,
Another basic question to fill the vaults... I like to work with alternative endings for repeats, i.e.
\repeat volta 2
\alternative { }
where alternative is two endings matched with the repeat number (i'll explain why):
\alternatives {
{do re do me do }
{ mi re do }
}
I want "volta 2," repeats because it works and the third repetition does not occur until the ENTIRE score has been read- all the way through. My thinking is to engrave it as something like this:
C: .. . . . .. . |__1___| |___2,5___|
My theory isn't what it could be. Do I need a dal signo? My thinking is that I do, at the end, with a coda at the starting point and a sign on the ending I wish to repeat! Hopefully this was easy to read. I'm trying to emulate a simplicity to music and thought I'd share this to hear something on a technical level.
Thank you.
