Re: Piano pedalling in (conductor) scores

[Valentin Petzel]

Hi Simon,

I’d say this probably depends how intrusive the pedalling indications are to 
the score. If you get clear advantages from doing so then it would be 
reasonable to do it, it you do not there is no real reason to do it. Generally 
omitting information from a conductors score is not something that should be 
done lightly.

Regarding the other thing: Even when you use Dynamics you can simply do

\layout {
  \context {
    \Dynamics
    \remove Piano_pedal_engraver
  }
}

or

\new Dynamics \with ... ...

Cheers,
Valentin
