Re: how to tie?

[Martin Wadsack]

Hi Jinsong,

 

it's because the double backslash generates a new voice context for every _expression_. In fact, the chord where you want to assign the tie, does not exist anymore, because the voice has ended.

 

See: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/multiple-voices.html

'The << {…} \\ {…} >> construct, where the two (or more) expressions are separated by double backslashes, behaves differently to the similar construct without the double backslashes: all the expressions within this construct are assigned to new Voice contexts. These new Voice contexts are created implicitly and are given the fixed names "1", "2", etc.'

 

 

You could to it this way:

 

 

\version "2.18.2"

\relative c, {

\clef "bass"

\key g \major

\time 3/4

<<

{

\tieNeutral

s4 <b' fis'>2 ~

<b fis'>2. ~ |

<b fis'>2.

}

\\

{

<b, fis'>2.

}

>>

}

 

Best regards,

Martin
