I'm a bit OT. I have a piece where I would like to add an "additional"
measure. The notation used to write this measure should make clear that:
- the measure is optional to play
- the measure is not existing in the original score
I know nothing about a standard way.
But I handled a similar problem once using a volta bracket,
only it was the other way round: indicating what might be missing.
I started the bar with
\bar "||"
\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta "ORIGINAL"))
and ended it with
\allowVoltaHook "||"
\bar "||"
\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f))
and in the bar I applied
\set fontSize = #-4
Cheers,
