Re: Specifying \language for a single book

Hi Sandro,

the \language command is used to tell LilyPond what notes (or chord roots)
you want. 
To control the way LilyPond displays them, you might need commands like
\italianChords, \germanChords etc.:

% ------------------------
\version "2.19.83"

<<
  \new ChordNames \chordmode { c1 a:m f g }
  \new ChordNames \chordmode { \italianChords c1 a:m f g }
  \new Staff { \clef bass c1 a f g }
>>
% ------------------------

Does that help?

Cheers, 
Klaus
