how do I add one?


Extend your PianoStaff

    \new PianoStaff <<
      \new Staff = "upper" \upper
      \new Staff = "lower" \lower
    >>

to include a third staff, for example:

    \new PianoStaff <<
      \new Staff = "upper" \upper
      \new Staff = "middle" \middle
      \new Staff = "lower" \lower
    >>

For that to work, you have to define middle's music too,
just like the music for upper and lower is already.



Cheers,
Robin
