Sample files

[mansouraoun]

Hello Lilypond community,

I'm an absolute beginner, I watched the full playlist on youtube and read a
fair amount of the manual yet it is all fragmented in my head now. I just
would like to see how the structure of a finished file would look like,
specifically a multi-staves score. I've searched on the website but I found
the graphic results of such files, not the actual code.

Thanks in advance!
Mansour

You found the graphic results in the manuals? You can click the graphics
and the code generating them will be displayed.

Also see the "Templates" section in the Learning Manual.

There are multi-staff templates for several different styles of music,
including piano, string quartet, vocal ensemble, and orchestra.

Thanks for your quick replies!

The references you sent will help me a lot. What I would love to see is a
finished complex score code with score blocks, just to observe how it was
done so I can fit all the separate lessons that I learned into place, like
those:

Are there any depository for such scores?

Thanks!

I'm pretty sure these example scores are generated from some code, but I
don't recall off the top of my hat where they are stored. But you may
want to have a look at http://www.mutopiaproject.org/ which provides
lots of scores of various complexity, as PDF *and* .ly files.

You can find them here:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/lilypond.git/tree/Documentation/ly-examples

We discussed in the past about adding the sources in the website, but
IIRC some thought that some examples may be too complex and might scare
away new users.

One very simple example (which you could extend easily):

\version "2.18.2"


Soprano = \relative c' {
  c4 d e2
  \bar "|."
}
\addlyrics {
  This is great!
}

Bass = \relative g {
  \clef bass
  f4 e8( d) a2
}
\addlyrics {
  Well well well
}

\new ChoirStaff <<
  \new Staff \Soprano
  \new Staff \Bass
