A.5 Orchestral templates
A.5.1 Orchestra, choir and piano
This template demonstrates the use of nested StaffGroup
and
GrandStaff
contexts to sub-group instruments of the same type
together, and the use of \transpose
for transposing
instruments. All music in variables is stored in C. Music may be
entered in C or, alternatively, entered in the instrument key and
transposed to C before being assigned to a variable.
