Re: Multiple repeat nested with alternative

[Mats Bengtsson]

I guess the most common way to notate this is

                     ________     ________             __________________    
________
                    [1.      ]  [2.                   [1.                ]  [2.
| x x x x | x x x x | x x x x :|| x x x x ||: x x x x | x x x x | x x x x :|| x 
x x x |
    A         B         C            D          E         F         D           
G

which easily can be obtained using LilyPond. I agree with James that 
most musicians would be
very confused by the notation you show below.
