Hi List,
quick general question:
if I have a StaffGroup, like this in my score:
----------------------------------
\new StaffGroup = "Staff_soloists"
<<
\new Staff = "Staff_oboe_solo" <<
\global \exTwoOboeMusic
>>
\new Staff = "Staff_guitar_solo" <<
\global \exTwoGuitarMusic
>>
\new StaffGroup = "Staff_percussion_solo" \with {
systemStartDelimiter = #'SystemStartSquare
instrumentName = #"Perc. Solo"
shortInstrumentName = #"S.Prc."
}
<<
\new Staff = "percSoloOneUpper" <<
\global \exTwoPercSoloOneMusicUpper
>>
\new Staff = "percSoloOneLower" <<
\global \exTwoPercSoloOneMusicLower
>>
>>
\new Staff = "exTwoCbsSolo" <<
\global \exTwoBassSoloMusic
>>
>>
-----------------------------------------------
Is there a way to put the group InstrumentName for that whole group, but rotated 90°? This is something that would be useful, for example, in a piece for orchestra with both chorus and soloists, or a concerto with more than one soloist (in this case, these are four soloists within a larger ensemble. The content is in a separate file, triggered by the variables, and \global defining Staff settings).
What I would like would be for the toplevel StaffGroup "Staff_soloists" to have a name, rotated 90° and extending to the left of the individual instrument names. Is there any way to do that?
Cheers,
A
