1.2.1 Simple notation ---------------------
· Pitches · Durations (rhythms) · Rests · Time signature · Tempo marks · Clef · All together LilyPond will add some notation elements automatically. In the next example, we have only specified four pitches, but LilyPond has added a clef, time signature, and rhythms. { c' e' g' e' } [image src="" alt="[image of music]" text="image of music" ] This behavior may be altered, but in most cases these automatic values are useful.
