Subject: Typesetting a Bach Ornament;
Sarabande, French Suite 5
I'm having trouble typesetting an ornament in the fifth measure of the
Sarabande from the E-flat French Suite. An image can be found at https://www.dropbox.com/s/hhgmne640fs1twb/ornament.jpg?dl=0
The ornament in question is the two in-staff markings on the dotted-quarter
A.
Unfortunately, I don't know the edition (I only have a photocopy of
this movement, and it's not on IMSLP). Nor have I even been able to track down
exactly what this ornament is. The closest I've found is the Nachschlag
at http://www.iment.com/maida/familytree/henry/music/bachnotation.htm#passinga
(The double-slur-like figure from Invention 3 at the bottom of that section is
similar to what appears in the Henle version of the Sarabande.)
I want to mimic the given edition as closely as possible; could anyone help
me out with typesetting this? I hate to ask, because it will look like I've
put forth zero effort; but it's just because I legitimately have no clue where
to begin.
http://lilypondblog.org/2013/08/adding-ornamentations-to-note-heads-part-1/
at Scores of Beauty looked promising, but I can't even manage to get that to
compile; I'm guessing something in LilyPond has happened since that was
published that prevents it from working in my 2.19.40.
I've attached a
laughably barren MWE; it'll save about 4 seconds.
