LilyPond Learning Manual: A.1 Single staff

## A.1 Single staff

### A.1.1 Notes only

This very simple template gives you a staff with notes, suitable for a solo instrument or a melodic fragment. Cut and paste this into a file, add notes, and you’re finished!

> >     \version "2.14.2"

>     melody = \relative c' {
>       \clef treble
>       \key c \major
>       \time 4/4

>       a4 b c d
>     }

>     \score {
>       \new Staff \melody
>       \layout { }
>       \midi { }
>     }

### A.1.2 Notes and lyrics

This small template demonstrates a simple melody with lyrics. Cut and paste, add notes, then words for the lyrics. This example turns off automatic beaming, which is common for vocal parts. To use automatic beaming, change or comment out the relevant line.

> >     \version "2.14.2"

>     melody = \relative c' {
>       \clef treble
>       \key c \major
>       \time 4/4

>       a4 b c d
>     }

>     text = \lyricmode {
>       Aaa Bee Cee Dee
>     }

>     \score{
>       <<
>         \new Voice = "one" {
>           \autoBeamOff
>           \melody
>         }
>         \new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" \text
>       >>
>       \layout { }
>       \midi { }
>     }

>     harmonies = \chordmode {
>       c4:m f:min7 g:maj c:aug
>       d2:dim b:sus
>     }

>     \score {
>       <<
>         \new ChordNames {
>           \set chordChanges = ##t
>           \harmonies
>         }
