Re: Strumming rhythm for chord progression

[Patrick Schmidt]

Hi Christian,

I think you just forgot one closing curly brace ("}"). This works for me:

\version "2.12.2"
<<
  \new ChordNames {
    \chordmode {
      g1 g2:sus4 g
    }
  }

\new Voice \with {
    \consists "Pitch_squash_engraver"
  } {
    \relative c'' {
      \improvisationOn
      g4 g8. g16 g8 g~g16 g g g
      g8. g16 g8 g r g g g
    }
  }
>>

You should indent your code and your braces. It's easier to read and to find 
errors.
