scriabin-opus-11

LilyPond engraving source files used to create Scriabin's Twenty-Four Preludes, opus 11.

Creating the PDF and MIDI files

(I highly recommend the Frescobaldi IDE for LilyPond. It makes all of the following much easier.)

The PDF and MIDI files can be created by issuing the following command in the directory this file is in (assuming you have lilypond in your PATH variable):

    lilypond preludes-op11-book.ly

To create a smaller PDF, try:

    lilypond -dno-point-and-click preludes-op11-book.ly

You may also download the latest release to get the compiled PDF and MIDI files.

Two-sided printing

The pieces are set up so that they can be printed on two sides of the paper, leaving an extra margin amount on the inside pages for binding. If you don't want this, open the file header-paper.ily, find the \paper block (in the middle) and set two-sided = ##f.

Thanks

Thanks to the folks at the LilyPond user's mailing list, especially Jean Abou Samra, for all the help getting LilyPond to do what I wanted.

Thanks to Patrick McCarty for the proofreading. It really is a big help.
