Thank you but I have difficult understanding why Frescobaldi
configured the score like that if it's not prone to using the global
block easily.
There are different ways of using a \global variable. One is to use it
just for something like:
global = {
\key as \minor
\tempo "Prestissimo con fuoco"
\time 13/16
}
This is the kind of usage for which the Frescobaldi templates are
designed. They assume that the whole global variable contains only items
with zero duration, so it can be inserted into the music expression
/sequentially/ (the {} braces create a sequential music expression).
If you want to use your global variable as in:
global = {
\time 3/4
\tempo "Largo"
s2.*7
\time 4/1
\tempo "Presto
s\longa*12
\bar "|."
}
– which is a kind of use that’s also common now and makes a lot of sense –
then you need to place it simultaneous to the music using <<>>.
The Frescobaldi templates should not be confused with a tutorial. They
are helpful for saving time and for remembering stuff as a beginner, but
they never replace carefully working through the Learning Manual, which
really is a must read and will save you a lot of trouble getting started.
