Subject: | Re: Instrument switching with a new staff - possible? |

Good afternoon everyone,
I was attempting to engrave this piece today and I've hit a bit of a
roadblock.
Essentially what I'm supposed to do is have the piano break away from it's
"normal" grand staff for many measures (15+).
Then change to a percussion 1-line staff to notate the various percussion
instruments the performer must play as well. Then return to standard piano
notation.
Is instrument switching possible in Lilypond, with a complete staff-type
change? I know you can add labels and change instruments, but I was unsure
it a total staff change was possible, temporarily, in a score.

I've done some experiments with instrument switching, but my code doesn't
seem to be working - only making things worse.
Could anyone possibly point me in the right direction please? Thank you
kindly!
Note: I just used "dummy notes" in this example, for simplicity, so don't
worry much that the notes don't match :) That's not an issue.

My goal:
(something like this, but ideally the 1-line percussion part would be
centered in the grand staff, instead of up near the RH of the piano - but
that's flexible if need be)

My current code:
\version "2.17.10"
global = {
\key c \major
\numericTimeSignature
\time 4/4
\tempo "Slow"
}
right = \relative c'' {
\global
c4 d e f | R1 | R1 | c4 f g f
}
left = \relative c' {
\global
c,4 d e f | R1 | R1 | c4 f g f
}
