Re: Piano music switching staves

[SoundsFromSound]

Derek,

Have you tried just a simple staff-change line?

http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/notation/common-notation-for-keyboards#staff_002dchange-lines

i.e.

Whenever a voice switches to another staff, a line connecting the notes can
be printed automatically:

    \new PianoStaff <<
      \new Staff = "one" {
   *     \showStaffSwitch*
        c1
        \change Staff = "two"
        b2 a
      }
      \new Staff = "two" {
        \clef bass
        s1*2
      }
    >>
