Re: more on chord names

[José Luis Cruz]

hello,

I hope I can help you. This is what I use to get the chordnames i want
for a specific chord, look at the example.

First, define the new names for the chords you want. Next add the list
to the exception list, and the last step is to put the line
        
        \property Current.chordNameExceptions = #chExceptions

where you want the new nomenclature to be used.



% ------------------------------- START-OF-LY

\header{}
\paper{}

% ..... etc

chExceptionMusic = \notes {
  <c ees g>1-\markup { "-" } %minor
  <c des ges>-\markup { "{sus$\\flat$2$^{(\\flat5)}$}" } %susb2b5
  <c d ees g>-\markup { "-add2" } % minor add2
  <c d g>-\markup { "sus2" }  % sus2
  <c d e g>-\markup { "add2" }  % add2
  <c f g>-\markup { "sus4" } % sus4
}

chExceptions = #(append
  (sequential-music-to-chord-exceptions chExceptionMusic #t)
  ignatzekExceptions)


harmony = \chords {

\property Current.chordNameExceptions = #chExceptions % << LOOK!!

a2 b:min c:min e:7

%{ ... etc %}
        
}


\score{ \harmony %{ ....... etc %}  }

P.S. I think that cannot exist minors sus4, because "sus" means
there's no 3rd, so maybe you want a minor add11...
