Short trills are printed with \trill
like normal
articulation; see Articulations and ornamentations.
Long running trills are made with \startTrillSpan
and
\stopTrillSpan
. In the following example, it is shown in
the common combination with grace notes. If a more precise
control of the placement of the grace notes is needed, see
Grace notes.
c1 \afterGrace d1\startTrillSpan { c16[\stopTrillSpan d] } c4
Trills that should be executed on an explicitly specified pitch
can be typeset with the command pitchedTrill
, and the
syntax \pitchedTrill
mainnote\startTrillSpan
trillnote endnote \stopTrillSpan
.
\pitchedTrill e2 \startTrillSpan fis d\stopTrillSpan
The first argument is the main note. The pitch of the second is printed as a stemless note head in parentheses.
\startTrillSpan
,
\stopTrillSpan
.
