Augmentum dots, also called morae, are added with the music
function \augmentum
. Note that \augmentum
is
implemented as a unary music function rather than as head prefix. It
applies to the immediately following music expression only. That is,
\augmentum \virga c
will have no visible effect. Instead, say
\virga \augmentum c
or \augmentum {\virga c}
. Also
note that you can say \augmentum {a g}
as a shortcut for
\augmentum a \augmentum g
.
\include "gregorian.ly" \score { \new VaticanaVoice { \[ \augmentum a \flexa \augmentum g \] \augmentum g } }
