Hello everyone. 

I don't know anyone who has lilypond who can help me with writing up a piano reduction, so I thought I would ask the list.

I have a project that is (technically) due next Monday. But I don't have the time to mess with all the lilypond errors I'm getting from trying to use \partcombine. I'm still finishing composing. 

I was wondering if anyone was willing to do the reduction for me or extensively help ( ie look at the files themselves and see what's wrong with it )?

Even if I complete the piano reduction by the end of May that would be fantastic. 

Thanks,

Molly

It's about 1 hr 15 minutes. It's a one act opera. Written for flute/piccolo, oboe, clarinet, percussion, string quartet. 

Sorry I left this information out.

If this means that you have a working edition of your score and parts I'm lilypond already, 

I'd be able to offer some suggestions along the lines of how I create condensed scores on grand staff. 

However, I will note at the outset that creating a piano reduction is not the same as combining parts, and is itself a creative compositional task.  

Especially given your time frame and the length of the piece, doing a proper job might be out of scope.
