LilyPond source files for Chopin's Twelve Etudes, Opus 25.

Requirements

LilyPond version 2.24.1 or higher. It is assumed that lilypond is in the PATH of your system.

Producing PDFs or other outputs

  • To create all etudes in a single book, cd into your installation directory and type:

      lilypond twelve-etudes-opus25-book.ly
    
  • To create an individual PDF of one etude, type:

      lilypond etude-op25-nox-individual.ly
    

...where nox is no1, no2, etc.

The PDFs produced will have point-and-click info in them, which you may not want (it makes the file size much bigger). To avoid this use the -dno-point-and-click command line option, or uncomment \pointAndClickOff in the source files. This is explained in detail here.

For those who don't want to or can't compile the source files to PDFs, you can find them on IMSLP here. Search for "Knute Snortum" (near the bottom). Or download the latest release.

Known problems

When compiling twelve-etudes-opus25-book.ly or etude-op25-no11-individual.ly you will see errors in the output to the screen. I have not been able to track down the cause but the PDF seems uneffected. Strangely, if you comment out the omit BarNumber line in header-paper.ily, the problem goes away.

Thanks

Thanks to phmcarty for all the proofreading.
